In 1956, the sculpture Wienberg won the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts' gold medal when he participated in the assignment "A free-standing nude figure for a modern park.". The sculpture was bought the following year by Thisted Municipality and erected on a granite plinth at Kystvejen in Thisted. The Thisted girl is clearly inspired by Greek statues of the goddess of love Aphrodite.

Several objects in the church come from the former church, this applies to e.g. the altarpiece, the nave and the chandeliers. The church was designed by architect Claudius August Wiinholt.
