Art Moe was inspired to build a replica as he drove by the church in Renner on a daily basis. After he retired he worked 5300 hours on the replica over a 15 year period. He paid $9000 for the materials and the church was built on a scale of 4 inches to the foot.
In August of 1883, Moe donated it to the West Nidaros Lutheran church for their 125th Anniversary.
