The original church here dated from the Middle Ages, but it was damaged in 1721 during Russian raids along the Swedish coast, and repaired around 1740. Rather than continuing to patch up the old building, the parish decided to build anew: between 1756 and 1766 a hall church with a rectangular plan and no tower was constructed, incorporating some masonry from the earlier medieval structure.
Further changes followed in the late eighteenth century, when a new porch and sacristy were added during rebuilding work in 1792-1793. The roof covering was later replaced, with shingles giving way to metal sheeting during a restoration in 1898, and central heating was installed in the late 1930s.
Among the church's furnishings is a crucifix dating from the fifteenth century, a survivor from the earlier medieval church and one of the few objects connecting the present building directly to its predecessor.
The church continues to be used for church occasions, though visitor numbers for such events are limited to a maximum of fifty participants.
