Construction took place in 1912–1913, using drawings originally prepared in 1899 by Gustaf Hermansson, though the finished building departed from these plans in some respects. Sources differ slightly on who directed the build: one account credits master builder Norberg of Sundsvall, while the Wikipedia article attributes the design to Hermansson without naming a builder. The church was consecrated on 28 September 1913 by Olof Bergqvist, bishop of the Luleå diocese.
The building is a large, panelled timber church with windows arranged over two storeys and tall gable windows. Its west front is flanked by two asymmetrical towers, the northern one taller than its neighbour, with a small porch set between them and a two-storey sacristy attached to the north side. The overall style is Jugend (Art Nouveau) with touches of neo-Gothic detailing, giving the exterior a somewhat secular appearance.
Inside, the church is light and spacious, with three aisles and galleries running along three sides. A distinctive feature is the turned woodwork, seen in the rounded altar area and in the gallery screen — decorative carpentry that visitors are likely to notice immediately on entering.
The altarpiece, painted by Torsten Nordberg, depicts Christ's entry into Jerusalem, the crucifixion and the resurrection. Symbols of the four evangelists appear at the northern row of windows in the nave. The organ, built in 1956 by Grönlunds Orgelbyggeri, has 18 stops across two manuals.
The church underwent a substantial renovation in 1954 to designs by Martin Westerberg, followed by a smaller alteration to the gallery structure in 1974 and repainting of the exterior the following year.
