The chapel was built in 1924 on a site known as Olsvensbacken, to designs by engineer Carl Bååth of Bollnäs, who also designed St Staffan's church at Gruvberget. Construction work was carried out under August Jakobsson of Växbo. The building was consecrated on 16 November 1924 by Archbishop Nathan Söderblom, a notable figure to have presided over such a small rural chapel.
Architecturally, the chapel is a timber-framed building with a rectangular nave, a polygonal chancel to the east and a tower to the west. The exterior walls are whitewashed and pierced by round-arched windows, while the nave roof is covered with clay tile and the tower carries a shingle-clad spire. Inside, a panelled ceiling and walls painted pale grey give the small interior a light, simple character, complemented by a wooden floor and open pews painted brown.
Among the chapel's furnishings is an altar painting by Erik Stenholm, added during a renovation in 1959. The church bell was cast by the Bergholtz foundry and dates from the year of the chapel's consecration. A later organ, built in 1979 by Åkerman & Lund, serves the chapel's modest musical needs.
In August 2024 the chapel marked its centenary with a commemorative gathering, including a talk on its history and a service led by the parish clergy — a reminder that, a century after Söderblom's visit, the small chapel continues to serve its local community.
