V?ler Kirke replaces the village's historic wooden kirke – or church – that was completely destroyed by a fire in 2009. Oslo-based architect Espen Surnevik's design was the winner of an international competition as it presented an empathic response to the brief by honouring the memory of the previous church.

\"The main story of the liturgy has become the narrative of the church: from fire to resurrection\" Surnevik explained adding that the new building's location form and materiality are informed by its predecessor.

V?ler Kirke教堂位于贯穿场地的轴线上 。 其主要入口与原有建筑入口直接重合 ， 老建筑有着低矮的墙体 ， 这些墙体延续了场地的原有痕迹 。

新建筑的平面分为四个区域 ， 其中包括主要大厅和洗礼池 ， 其两侧是公共区域和行政空间 。
