A stone church dating from the 1100s originally stood on this site, but by the mid-1800s the congregation had outgrown it and discussions began about building anew. Agreement between the Crown and the parish was finally reached in 1871, and the new church, designed in neo-Gothic style by the noted architect Helgo Zettervall, was consecrated at Whitsun in 1875.
The building follows a three-aisled plan with a straight-ended chancel to the east and a tower to the west, with transepts projecting from the north and south sides of the nave. A five-sided sacristy, lower than the main building, is attached beyond the chancel. Above the altar is a striking stained-glass window created by Erik Jerken in 1937, composed of seven circular scenes from the life of Christ, with the Crucifixion at its centre.
Few furnishings survive from the earlier medieval church. The octagonal font, carved from polished light oak, dates from the time of the new building's construction in 1875, though its font bowl is said to be considerably older, possibly from 1549. The light oak pulpit has a six-sided body without a canopy, carved with figures representing the four evangelists.
The church holds two bells, recast in the 1770s by the Kristianstad bell-founder Abraham Palmberg, each decorated with ornamental friezes. Visitors interested in organs will find a history of several instruments here, including an earlier organ later moved to Finja church; the present mechanical organ in the gallery dates from 1962 and was subsequently combined with a digital organ, reportedly reinaugurated in 2013. A separate small mechanical choir organ was installed in 1990.
