A grey-stone church stood on this site in the Middle Ages before the present building replaced it. Construction took place between 1834 and 1841 under master builder Lars David Geting, following designs by the architect Per Axel Nyström, and the finished church was consecrated in 1841 by Bishop Frans Michael Franzén.
The church has a rectangular nave aligned from north-west to south-east, with the chancel and tower at the south-eastern end. The main entrance and porch are at the north-western end, with a further entrance on the south-western side. The exterior walls are white-rendered, and the roofs, now copper-clad, were originally covered in wooden shingles; the tower is topped with a wooden lantern.
Among the furnishings, the pulpit was carved in 1840 by Salomon Hägglöf of Häggenås in Jämtland, who also made a font angel for the church in 1849. A censer surviving from the medieval period offers a tangible link to the earlier church on the site. The altarpiece, depicting Christ on the cross, was painted in 1842 by Albert Blombergsson.
The church has had a succession of organs. An 1849 instrument by the Resele organist Johan Dalin was followed in 1906 by an organ built by Christian Schuster of Östersund. The current main organ, built in 1956 by the Gustaf Hagström organ workshop in Härnösand, retains mechanical key action with pneumatic stop action. A smaller organ in the devotional room, built around 1870 by Nils Erik Bodén of Resele, began life as a domestic instrument before being donated to the church in 1980.
