The church was built in 1926–27 at the initiative of the local vicar, Frans Tivell, who had pressed for a new church since taking up his post in 1909. It was funded largely through voluntary donations and unpaid labour, with the Stora Kopparberg company contributing both money and land. The architect was Erik Karlstrand of Stockholm, and the building was consecrated on 13 February 1927 by Archbishop Nathan Söderblom.
The church is constructed of whitewashed lime-sand brick made in nearby Skutskär, under a black-painted hipped metal roof topped with gilded-ball crosses. Round windows along the sides, said to resemble the shape of throat lozenges, were a gift from the Ahlgren's confectionery firm of Gävle. The plain, light interior has white walls and a flat, reddish-brown wooden ceiling, with the windowless chancel at the east end and the sacristy to its north.
The main entrance on the south side passes through a half-detached bell tower standing before the porch, itself whitewashed and crowned with a dark tarred lantern roughly level with the church roof. Its bell was cast in 1926. Nearby stands a memorial stone to Frans Tivell, unveiled in 1954.
The altarpiece, added in 1966, is the work of the artist Einar Forseth and depicts modern people encountering the risen Christ by the Sea of Galilee. The wooden font was a gift for the church's consecration from a local director, Robert Strand, and a woven wall hanging from 1984 by Anna Lisa Odelqvist-Kruse hangs on the south wall behind it.
The church holds an organ built in 1954 by the Gothenburg firm of Olof Hammarberg, later renovated in 1970. The church seats around 130 people, with additional space for about 30 in the adjoining parish hall.
