It is located in the village of Holdhus. Although it is no longer regularly used, it is one of the churches that is part of the Fusa parish which is part of the Fana prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The brown, wooden church was built in a long church design in 1726, although part of the building dates to 1618.
