History

The small building was first constructed in 1907 as a prayer house for the people of Tømmervåg on the island of Tustna. In 1952, the prayer house was consecrated as an annex chapel for the Tustna parish. The altarpiece was made by Martin Halsby. The pulpit and baptismal font were both added to the building in 1952. There is no cemetery at this chapel.^[3][4]
