Sarpsborg Church, which was inaugurated in 1863, is a typical long-church in a refurbished red brick, with towers in the west, five-sided choirs in the east and relatively low and wide ships. The roof is covered with slate. The church, built by drawings by Chr. H. Grosch, was built on parts of the walls after the previous church on the site, which only stood for two years before it burned in 1861. The only thing that was rescued by the burning church was a baptismal font and ritual vessel. Apart from a larger sacristy for baptismal children and confirmations south of the choir that was built in 1900, the church looks largely like when it was built. Inside, however, several changes have been made in the interior, mainly in 1958. The colors of the interior are from this time, with pink walls in the ship, much light green in the choir, white details and gold-plated constructions. The painting of Christ in the cloud, formerly an altarpiece in the church, is a copy painted by Christen Brun after the Adolph Tidemands altarpiece in the Tyristrand chapel. On the altar there is now an altar cross in silver, which is Steinar Flatheim's parish from 1958. The baptismal font of sandstone in neo-Gothic style is made by A. F. W. von Hanno in 1859, and comes from the church as steep. There are many stained glass windows in the church. Three windows in the choir were made by Victor Smith in 1958, and the round window over the organ gallery is by Rolf Klemetsrud from 1951. Karl Kristiansen made the other stained-glass windows in 1918. The cemetery are closed for buriel.
