History
[edit]
In 1923, a prayer house chapel was built in the village of Magnor. It was consecrated for church use in 1924. The church is a typical wooden long church. The building is today titled as a church, but is technically an annex chapel that belongs to the Eidskog parish with Eidskog Church in Matrand as the main church rather than being its own parish.[2][3]
