Hörröds kyrka

The decision to demolish the old medieval church and build a replacement was taken as early as 1832, but fundraising proved slow. It was not until 1855 that the parish had gathered sufficient funds, roughly 7,000 riksdaler, to proceed. The present church was built between 1856 and 1858 in a neo-Romanesque style to designs by Albert Törnqvist and was consecrated in 1858.

An old folk custom was reportedly observed at the laying of the foundation stone in 1856, when a living rooster was said to have been buried on the site. According to one account, from a local heritage researcher associated with the Kulturen museum in Lund, this was believed to be the last recorded instance of this ancient rite being performed at a Swedish church, though this claim rests on a single secondary source and cannot be independently confirmed.

The church's exterior is notable for its colour scheme of yellow-red, soot-grey and white. These are said to be the original colours, rediscovered during a 1997 renovation; the parish chose to restore them, with the agreement of the Swedish National Heritage Board.

When the medieval church was pulled down, most of its furnishings and fittings were sold or destroyed. The font, however, was preserved and transferred to the new building; it dates from the first half of the 13th century, making it as old as the earlier church, and has been attributed to the so-called Maglehem group of stonecarvers. Other rescued items include the church bells, altar candlesticks and a few carved altar figures, among them depictions of Saint Paul with a sword and Saint Peter with the keys of heaven. Further sculptural fragments from the old altarpiece, dated to around 1500, are held at the Historical Museum of Lund University rather than in the church itself. The former pulpit, with a canopy dated 1603, was auctioned off and dismantled, its carvings dispersed; only a small fragment is said to survive in the Kulturen museum's collections.

Wall paintings on the chancel wall were added in 1958 by the artist Pär Siegård. The church's mechanical organ was built in 1893 by the Copenhagen organ builder Knud Olsen.
