Soenderho Church was built in 1782 and the construction is quite unique. According to local tradition, it was built as a narrow nave with a built-in transept. As the population grew, extensions were added. At the end of the 18^thcentury, the population number was at its highest in the parish and since tradition dictated the church to be able to seat every adult in the parish at the services, the ground plan of the church was altered to accommodate the extensions. That way, the ground plan became almost square. The church was furnished with whatever could be reused from the previous church which was torn down in the beginning of 1782 as it had been completely damaged due to the rising ground water level, among other things. It is not known when the previous church was built, but the clergy records definitely dates to the 16^thcentury and the Reformation.

The old furniture of the church was adjusted to fit in: a baptismal font from the 13^thcentury, the altar dated 1717, a gallery for "poor people and other strangers", the pulpit dated 1661 that supposedly comes from the hospital chapel in Ribe, and the confessional. At that time, the most essential part of the service was not the communion but the sermon and so the pulpit was placed midway on the south side. The church had become an assembly-hall church. Brass holders for tallow candles that had been donated by seamen over the years made up the lighting. Like the rest of the village, the church was wired for electricity in 1932. This furniture is still to be found in the big church which seats about 450 people today, the number of those attending Christmas Eve services, even though the population of the village, as of the most recent census, is only a about 340.

In the beginning of the 20^thcentury the church took over the used pews from Ribe Cathedral. It might be fair to call it a neo-gothic style.

In December 2006 a new organ, built by Danish organ builders Christiansen and Sons was inaugurated. It replaced the old pneumatic organ from 1903, and with its 16 (optional 18) registers it far more fits the acoustics and architectonic characteristics of the church.

The church is open to visitors from Monday to Saturday from 8:00 am till 4:00 pm and on Sundays and holidays from noon till 4:00 pm provided there are no services or other religious ceremonies taking place during these hours.
