The size and ornamentation of the church is due to the fact that the entire northern Dalarna, with the exception of Orsa, belonged to the parish in the Middle Ages. In the Middle Ages, the church was dedicated to Saint Michael, which is why this archangel is also included in the coat of arms of the municipality of Mora. Source: Wikipedia

The first stone church was built in the 13th century and probably replaced a wooden stave church. Around 1300 the church was extended to the east and then the sacristy was probably added. An inventory of the roof of the church found splintered pieces of wood that may date from around 1300, when the sacristy was built. In the middle of the 14th century the church was extended to its current width. At the end of the 15th century, the church was expanded to its present size, except for the chancel. In 1607 the foundation stone for a church tower was laid on the west side, but it was not until 1639 that the tower was completed. The current pentagonal choirs were added during a remodeling in 1752–1755 under the direction of master builder Petter Schulzberg from Västerås. Today's church tower was built in 1853 according to plans by the architect Ludvig Hawerman. The earlier tower from 1639 was demolished due to poor construction.

The church is situated on a narrow isthmus in the northern part of the town of Mora, between the northwestern end of Siljan and the Österdal river. The oldest part of Mora Church was probably built in the late 13th century or around 1300. It was built of gray stone and consisted of a nave, narrower chancels and a sacristy. Around the year 1400 the church was extended to the west and at the end of the 15th century another part was added - a rectangular hall church with three naves and a vaulted roof. A little later, an armory was also added in the south. In 1581 a strong west tower was built, probably with a high spire at the top. From the oldest part of the church, some wall sections have been preserved, such as the north wall of the nave and parts of the east and west walls of the sacristy.
