Construction probably began in the late 12th century. A 13th-century shrine is located in the niche in the chancel. On the north side of the chancel is the communion cabinet, where the consecrated communion bread is kept; a red prayer lamp marks the presence of Christ. Two medieval saints, the Virgin Mary to the north and the patron saint of Olof the Saint to the south, indicate the church's importance as a pilgrimage church. A fire in 1898 destroyed the 17th-century decorative wall paintings. The church was rebuilt after the fire, but it was not until 1930 that the interior of the church acquired the appearance it has today.

Next to it there is a room for pilgrims with water and toilet.

There is a fee to visit the tower.

A hundred years ago, Storgatan was Östersund's main commercial and parade street. The large trading companies were located here, e.g. “Freskens” – Fresks and Smiths. Along Storgatan was also perhaps Östersund's most beautiful and magnificent building - the Grand Hotel. Although some have been demolished, many beautiful houses along the street remain, e.g. B. “Frimans”, one of the oldest shops on Storgatan.
