It is located in the village of Setermoen. It is the main church for the Bardu parish which is part of the Senja prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland. The white, octagonal, wooden church was built in a octagonal style in 1829 using plans drawn up by the architect Ole Olsen Lundberg. The church seats about 220 people.[1][2]
Bardu Church was constructed from 1825-1829 and it was modeled after the Tynset Church in Hedmark county, but this one was built to a smaller scale. The church has an octagonal floor plan, a large square tower to the west, and a choir to the east. The exterior of the church is clad with vertical, white painted panels. The tower, which was not completed until 1840, has a pyramid-shaped roof.[1]
