The medieval church that once stood here dated back to the 1100s, with a strongly built west tower thought to predate the rest of the building, possibly standing beside an earlier wooden church. Its stone font belonged to the so-called Götene group, among the oldest known in the region. The old church was remodelled into a cross-shaped building in 1754, damaged by a lightning-caused fire in 1770, and repaired over the following years before finally being demolished in 1905 to make way for the present building.
The new church was designed by the architect Hjalmar Tessing and built in a Gothic style, incorporating stone and furnishings salvaged from its predecessor. These included carved 'lily stones', a runestone, an old font, and an altarpiece. The interior was originally painted yellow and brown on the ceiling, with blue-grey and yellow-grey walls, though later renovations—notably in 1938 and again in 1970–1972—altered the colour schemes, added a gallery substructure, and updated the heating and sacristy fittings.
Among the notable furnishings is a late-medieval wooden sculpture of Saint Eric, along with an eighteenth-century wooden font, altarpiece and hourglass holder. Several lily stones from the earlier church are preserved inside. The smaller of the church bells is of a late-medieval type and carries a Latin inscription invoking the Virgin Mary and Saint Eric, evidence of a local devotion to the cult of Saint Eric that is echoed in the wooden sculpture.
A runestone from the old church, known as Vg 73, was originally built into the porch wall before being moved outside in 1937 to stand by the western churchyard wall; it commemorates a father described as a good thegn, raised by his sons.
The organ, built in 1926 by Nordfors & Co of Lidköping, is a pneumatic instrument with a façade designed by Tessing.
According to one source, the church has been closed since the turn of 2017–2018 due to subsidence and damp-related mould damage, though visitors should check current status independently as this may have changed.
