History

The island of Lepsøya was given permission to build a small prayer house in 1896. In 1956, the building was renovated and enlarged as part of an upgrade to the status of annex chapel for the parish. It was consecrated in 1956. The chapel doesn't have a graveyard at the site, but there is a cemetery located about to the north that is used by the chapel.
