## History

In 1932, the Heimdal area parishioners formed the Heimdal Chapel Association which had a goal of some day building a chapel in Heimdal. In 1960, their dream was realized when a new chapel was constructed in Heimdal. The building was [consecrated](/source/Consecrate) on 6 November 1960 by Bishop [Arne Fjellbu](/source/Arne_Fjellbu). In 1971, the chapel was upgraded to be a full [parish church](/source/Parish_church).[3][4]
