History
In 1957, planning began for a church for Volsdalen area to the east of the city centre of Ålesund. An architectural competition for the design of the new church was won by Leif Olav Moen. Construction for a new church was delayed due to a lack of funding. An interim church building was consecrated in 1964 for temporary use. In 1965, the Volsdalen area was separated from the Ålesund Church parish and it was established as a new parish of Volsdalen. In the 1970s, the builder and seafaring priest Bjørn Siem accelerated matters. He reworked the drawings to reduce costs, and a lot of volunteer work was done to construct the new church. The building was completed in 1974 and it was consecrated on 19 May 1974.
