The earliest known church on this site was built of stone and stood a little to the southwest of the present building. At some point in the sixteenth century it collapsed, and a wooden chapel was raised in its place. Because the ground proved too waterlogged, a further timber church was built a short distance away in 1651.
The church seen today was constructed between 1742 and 1748, an octagonal timber building typical of many Swedish rural churches of that period. It was restored in the 1860s, and in 1910–1911 underwent more substantial changes: a new brick tower was added on the west side, the old sacristy was converted into a chancel, and a new sacristy was built. A major restoration between 1950 and 1952 gave the church its current roof and ceiling, said locally to give an impression of open sky above the congregation.
Despite being one of the smallest churches in the area, seating around 120 people, its bright, open interior is often described as never feeling cramped, and the space is said to lend itself readily to concerts and similar events.
Among the church's furnishings is a wooden Madonna sculpture dating from the sixteenth century, considerably older than the present building, presumably surviving from an earlier church on the site. The font is the work of David Wretling, and there is a wooden sculpture depicting Jesus and Simon of Cyrene by Carl Elmberg.
