History

Havstein cemetery was consecrated on 14 August 1854 to serve the western part of the city. Soon after, a church was built beside the cemetery. The church was consecrated on 30 November 1857. The church was originally built as an annex for Strinda Church, the main church for the parish. The neo-Gothic, stone church was built in a long church style and designed by the architects Heinrich Ernst Schirmer and Wilhelm von Hanno. The altarpiece was designed in 1863 by sculptor Ole Laulo (1825-1901).WEB, Dag Sveen, Ole Jacobsen Laulo,weblink Norsk kunstnerleksikon, 2018-09-01, In 1900, the original tower on the roof of the nave was removed and a new wooden tower was built on the west side of the building. The tower was designed by architect Erik Selnes. In 1926, a baptismal sacristy was built on the south side and the whole church got a new roof. The stained glass in the church is from 1968 and was made by artist Carsten Lien (1894-1970)WEB, Henning Alsvik, Carsten Lien,weblink Norsk kunstnerleksikon, 2018-09-01, .WEB, Havstein kirke,weblink 2021-06-22, Norges-Kirker.no, Norwegian,
