The church was designed by Carl Salin, county building master in Värmland, and is one of the larger stone churches in the diocese, forming a notable landmark in the surrounding countryside. It replaced an older, medieval church that still stands roughly a kilometre to the north, and the two buildings together illustrate contrasting eras of Swedish church architecture.
The rendered stone building has a rectangular nave with three-sided terminations at both the east and west ends, an arrangement that echoes the nearby church at Åmål. The exterior, whitewashed and pierced by large round-arched windows, is said to be little altered since construction, with the tower's heavy cornice, shallow dome and lantern remaining the dominant external feature. The main entrance is through the base of the tower on the south side. Inside, the church was originally designed to seat around 500 worshippers.
Much of the Neoclassical interior survives, including the altarpiece, altar rail and pulpit. The altarpiece is built up as a temple gable supported by marbled pilasters and columns, framing a large gilded cross, with an inscription praising God on high above. A soapstone font, dated to the 13th century, was brought here from the old Tösse church; only its base survives from the original medieval piece, now used inverted as the bowl.//The interior colour scheme seen today, with pale pink walls and a white-painted timber barrel vault, dates from a renovation of 1948–50, when marbling was also added to the chancel, pews and gallery. In 1978 a smaller worship space, a 'lillkyrka', was created in the centre of the nave to bring intimacy to smaller services, a change that has left the building's overall character largely intact.
The church also houses two organs of note: a mid-20th-century instrument from 1953, and an older organ dating from 1867, retained behind it, along with a small medieval-type bell rescued from the church at Tydje.
