At first, there was a desire to have a separate hall at the local school for church use, but this never happened. Instead, fundraising and planning eventually led to the construction of a separate chapel at Trøftskogen (later named Trautskogen). In 1928, architectural drawings were received from the State building inspector's office (Norwegian: Statens bygningsinspektør) which were used for the new chapel. The local parishioners contributed materials and volunteer work to construct the building. It is a log building with a long church design. There is a sacristy on both sides of the choir. The new chapel was consecrated by the bishop on 11 October 1931. In 1952, the building was wired for electricity. It wasn't until 2009 that the chapel received smoke alarms.[3][4]
