In 1946, an architectural competition was held for the construction of a new church in Bodø. The architects Gudolf Blakstad and Herman Munthe-Kaas won that competition. The foundation stone was laid in 1954 for rebuilding the new church and was consecrated by Bishop Wollert Krohn-Hansen in 1956. By the time it was completed, it became the new cathedral for the new Diocese of Sør-Hålogaland.Bodø Cathedral is built of concrete and has a basilica design.

It is designed by Åge Storstein and constructed by Borgar Hauglid. The church has a 36m tall independent clock tower that contains three bells. There is also a memorial to those who died from Bodø during the World War II. The memorial says «Til de fra Bodø som gav sitt liv for Norge under krig og okkupasjon 1940 - 1945. Ingen nevnt, ingen glemt» which means "To those from Bodø who gave their lives for Norway during the war and occupation 1940 - 1945. Not named, Not forgotten."
