History
The building was first built in 1985 as a facility for people who are developmentally disabled. During the 1990s, this program was discontinued and the building became available. In 1994, the parish purchased the building and converted it into a church. The gymnasium was converted into the nave. The church was consecrated by Bishop Rosemarie Köhn in 1994.{{Cite web |title=Engehaugen kirke |url=https://www.norske-kirker.net/home/oppland/engehaugen-kirke/ |access-date=2022-01-24 |website=Norges-Kirker.no |language=Norwegian}}
