After the medieval church burned down, parishioners had to travel to Dalstorps kyrka for services for several years. It was not until later that plans took shape for a new building on the old site, supported by a local church-building society and largely funded through public subscription and voluntary labour. Some of the old stone walls were reused in the new construction.
Sources differ slightly on the details of the building's creation: one account names the architect as B A Pettersson, while another attributes the design to Arvid Pelin of Borås, with construction carried out under builder Gustaf (or Gustav) Persson from the nearby settlement of Åkerhult, reportedly aged 80 at the time. The church itself is a modest long nave with a narrower tower set into the west end and a semicircular sacristy to the east.
The church has been altered several times since it was built. A renovation in the 1930s brought a new floor and warm-air heating, and electric lighting and heating followed a couple of decades later. The interior was repainted in a lighter scheme around the 1940s, and the roof covering was changed from cement tiles to two-curved clay tiles towards the end of the twentieth century. A further renovation in the 1990s removed some rear pews to create space for a gallery understructure containing a toilet and storage, and the remaining pews were widened and the interior repainted once more.
Among the church's furnishings is a medieval sandstone font, carved around 1300 in a style influenced by fonts found on Gotland, with shell-shaped ornament around its bowl. This original font is no longer in the church but is kept at the Gothenburg City Museum; a later hexagonal wooden font, marbled in grey with a pointed lid painted green and blue, now serves in its place. The altarpiece, depicting Christ at Gethsemane, was given to the church in 1957 and painted by the artist Bengt Hamrén. A plain pulpit without a canopy stands at the north wall of the chancel, and the current organ was built in 1971.
