The chapel was designed by Ferdinand Boberg, a prolific and influential architect working around the turn of the twentieth century. Boberg is known for a wide range of notable Swedish buildings, including the LO headquarters, Rosenbad, Waldemarsudde and the Thielska Gallery in Stockholm, as well as the central post offices in Stockholm and Malmö, the NK department store building, and the Church of the Transfiguration (Uppenbarelsekyrkan) in Saltsjöbaden. He was also considered one of the leading exhibition architects of his era, shaping the imaginative designs of the Stockholm exhibitions of 1897 and 1909 and the Baltic Exhibition of 1914 in Malmö.
The chapel itself has a tall, steeply pitched roofline and exterior forms that recall a medieval church, giving it a sense of rootedness in Swedish tradition while remaining distinctly its own building. The exterior walls are faced in red brick beneath a roof covered with black slate tiles, a combination that gives the chapel a solid, textured appearance.
Inside, the chapel's altar is made of marble and bears an oxidised, gilded crucifix produced by the Stockholm foundry AB Förenade Konstgjuterierna. The chapel remains part of the local burial service and is used for funeral ceremonies, including for those who are not members of the Church of Sweden.
