The church dates from the mid-12th century and was built of granite blocks in the Romanesque style. The church was expanded in 1694 by adding a family chapel.

Odder Parish Church was built in the second half of the 12th century on the spot where there was a ford across Odder Å and the roads from the north, south, east and west converged.

Odder Church is a historic parish church from the 12th century and one of the oldest parish churches in Denmark. It consists of a chancel and nave from the late 11th century, an apse rebuilt in 1868 and a stout tower. Particularly noteworthy is the burial chapel for Admiral Jens Rodsteen and his family, built around 1693.
The church also houses a Romanesque baptismal font and fragments of 13th-century lime paintings. Another highlight is the 18-voice Frobenius organ, installed in 1994.
