The church space, which is built of wood, has a ground area of 7.2 m x 7.2 m, with a central skylight. Between the church space and the surrounding wall lies a screened entrance area, christening area, sacristy and choir section. The christening area, kitchen and sacristy also served a lodging function – something that was extremely necessary before the year-round road was built between Kautokeino and Karasjok.
