The church was built in 1963 to designs by architect Per-Lennart Berggren, with construction carried out by master builder Evert Lindqvist. It was consecrated on Ascension Day, 23 May 1963, by Bishop Ivar Hylander of Luleå.
The building is a simple rectangular nave with a steeply pitched roof clad in eternit (a fibre-cement sheeting once widely used in Swedish church construction). At the eastern gable, three narrow chancel windows were created by the artist Stig Pettersson of Luleå, giving the otherwise plain interior a distinctive focal point. A parish hall is attached to the main church building.
A free-standing wooden bell tower was erected in the summer of 1963 by master builder Sigfrid Tjärnlund, a common arrangement for smaller Swedish churches of this era rather than an integrated tower. The churchyard was laid out somewhat later, and was consecrated in 1969.
The church's organ, built in 1963 by the Grönlund organ workshop of Gammelstad, is a mechanical instrument and was the first organ installed in the church.
