The church was designed as part of a wider development at Frösön's new administrative centre, bringing together a church and a civic building under one coordinated architectural vision, led by architect Yngve Tegnér's team of architects and artists. The result is a restrained, block-like structure typical of late-modernist Swedish church design of the 1960s, with flat roofs and a bell tower topped by a cross that rises visibly above the surrounding buildings, marking the church within the wider complex.
The exterior is faced with brick from Helsingborg, laid, according to one account, with the reverse side of the bricks turned outward so that their numerical markings remain visible—an unusual detail attributed to the architect's design idea. A staircase leads to the entrance, where a small courtyard is formed between the enclosing wings of the building, with a well marking the approach.
Inside, the nave narrows towards the chancel beneath a gently vaulted ceiling. The walls are coarsely rendered in a pale beige tone, broken by vertical recesses intended to improve acoustics but which also lend a decorative rhythm to the surfaces. Sources differ slightly on the exterior finish: one account describes white-rendered walls giving an almost monastic impression, while another emphasises the exposed brick cladding—visitors should not be surprised if the appearance does not match every description precisely.
Above the altar hangs a wooden sculpture of Christ on the cross by the sculptor K.G. Bejemark, who also carved the four evangelist symbols decorating the pulpit. The church additionally holds textile work by Maria Triller and silverwork by Carl-Gustav Jansson, with the church council reportedly giving the architect responsibility for commissioning artists and designers, producing an interior in which architecture, fittings and artwork were conceived together. The sacristy and baptismal chapel adjoin the main nave. The current organ, with 25 stops, was installed in 1981 by the organ-building firm of Johannes Mentzel of Härnösand.
Standing beside the church is the Frösö Runestone, said to be Sweden's northernmost rune stone, raised around 1050; according to its inscription it was erected by a man named Östman, who is also credited with bringing Christianity to Jämtland.
