The church is beautifully located but quite isolated down to Tjele Langsø. At first glance, it may seem strange that the area's few farms have needed a church on the site, when only three kilometers away it has been possible to search for Lindum Church. But in the past, the farms had many girls and men, so only a few farms could fill a church of Bigum's size. The church consists of a Romanesque chancel and nave built of finely hewn squares over a sloping plinth, presumably built around 1150. Two Romanesque windows have been preserved in the chancel, the south window is bricked up, but the north window is still used.
