The church stands where its predecessor once stood, and some of its timber is said to have come from that earlier building. It was constructed with a three-sided chancel to the east and a tower to the west; a separate sacristy was added in the angle between the north and east transept arms during the 1880s, later replaced by a new sacristy around 1981. The exterior, with its white-painted panelling and slate roofs, is described as fairly well preserved.
Inside, the church is covered by two intersecting barrel vaults. A restoration in the 1920s, led by the architect Bror Almquist, uncovered decorative and figurative paintings from the time of the church's construction around the window openings and vaults.
The altarpiece is a Baroque work originally dating from the 1730s, though its lower section was completed in 1819 by a local farmer, Olof Persson of Östervallskog, who is also credited with carving the pulpit's trumpet-blowing angel figures and the large wooden chandelier hanging in the centre of the church. The pulpit itself dates from 1859.//The font, carved from soapstone, is a notable survival: unusually shaped, with a square bowl with rounded corners standing on four legs and a drainage hole at its centre. It is dated to around the mid-12th century, making it one of the oldest such objects in Värmland, and its design has been linked to English models via similar fonts found in Norway.
A thorough restoration between 1978 and 1982, overseen by Jerk Alton, saw the slate roof cleaned and relaid, new copper guttering installed, and the interior repainted and modernised, including new electrical, sound and lighting systems. The church was re-consecrated in August 1982.
