The present stone church was built between 1798 and 1802, replacing a medieval predecessor that may have stood on the site since the 1200s. It was constructed in the plain, spacious style favoured at the time, essentially a large whitewashed hall built to accommodate roughly half the parish population, seating around 300 people, including 70 in the gallery. Consecration took place in 1804.
Rather than fund a tower at the time of building, the parish erected a separate wooden bell-house on a hill above the sexton's farm. It was not until 1926–1928 that the brick tower seen today, designed by the architect Martin Westerberg, was added to the church itself. The church also underwent a rather heavy-handed restoration in the 1880s, which altered aspects of its earlier character.
Among the church's furnishings are several notably old objects: a medieval crucifix, a censer dating from the 15th century, and an unusual madonna figure said to date from the 1200s. A font carved from Gotland limestone is also attributed to the 13th century. One of the church's chandeliers is said to have originally hung in Gustav III's old opera house in Stockholm, an intriguing but specific claim visitors may enjoy tracing further.
The main organ was built in 1826 by Carl Magnus Ringström of Ukna and has been modified several times since, including alterations in the mid-1800s and again in the twentieth century. A smaller choir organ was installed in 1967 but was reportedly given away, to the Baltic states, at some point between 1990 and 2014, so it should no longer be assumed present.
