The present building was constructed in 1820–1821 on a new site, replacing a medieval stone church that had stood a few hundred metres away. It was consecrated on 24 June 1825 by Bishop Esaias Tegnér, marking his very first church consecration after taking up the bishopric. At the ceremony Tegnér reportedly spoke warmly of the parish's incumbent dean, Carl Magnus Agrell, who had driven the project forward and who had himself once been a rival candidate for the bishop's post.
Designed by the architect Axel Almfelt, the church is a typical example of neoclassical style from the period. It has a rectangular nave with a closing chancel wall to the east and a semicircular sacristy behind it. The tower, with its main entrance, stands at the western end of the nave, while further doors open on the north and south sides and the sacristy has its own southern entrance. The tower is topped with an open lantern and a cross-orb finial.
Inside, the altarpiece, painted around 1830 by Salomon Andersson, is a copy of a work by Peter Paul Rubens depicting the Descent from the Cross; it sits within a classicist pilaster surround dating from 1938. A freestanding altar was added in 1973, with an oak crucifix by the artist Eva Spångberg. The font, carved from Gotland sandstone in 1930, was designed by Margit Hagenfeldt, and a stylised church-window textile hangs on the wall nearby.
The pulpit, in Empire style with gilded symbols, gained its sounding board in 1934. Among the older furnishings retained from the previous medieval church are a floor clock and a wooden knocker once used to summon parishioners, along with pews dating from the current church's construction.
The church has had a succession of organs, beginning with an instrument by Hans Henrich Cahman in 1691 and continuing through rebuilds in 1755, 1845, 1918 and 1958; the present organ case dates from the 1845 instrument, though the mechanism itself is later.
