Börrums kyrka

Before the church existed, services had reportedly been held for over ninety years in a room at Börrum manor known as the 'church hall'. The parish, small in both area and population, had long depended on the manor's owners, and the church was only built after Vendela Canterstierna and local farmers petitioned the diocesan chapter and, ultimately, King Karl XII for permission. It was completed remarkably quickly and consecrated on 29 June 1718. The church and parish were originally named after St Peter, a name that fell out of use by the late eighteenth century.

The timber church has a rectangular nave with a straight-ended chancel, whitewashed rendered walls, and a tiled saddle roof. A sacristy was added in 1736 and a porch in 1748, with a detached bell tower erected in 1726. A significant renovation around 1850 saw the walls rendered and windows enlarged; the flat, dark-blue painted ceiling was replaced at this time by the tunnel vault seen today, and the church received its current altarpiece.

By the early twentieth century the building was in poor condition, reportedly lacking a proper foundation, and a major renovation took place in the early 1920s under the noted church architect Knut Nordenskjöld (sources differ slightly on whether the work spanned 1920–21 or 1921–23). The sacristy and porch were largely rebuilt, the structure was straightened and underpinned, and the interior was repainted following traces of earlier decorative schemes. Much of the practical work was carried out by parishioners themselves. A further renovation took place in 1995, addressing windows, flooring and interior conservation.

The pulpit, decorated with figures of the evangelists, predates the church itself: carved in the early eighteenth century, it was bought from Törnevalla church (accounts differ over whether this occurred in 1742 or 1744) and is thought to be the work of the Söderköping sculptor Ramund Bangell. A distinctive feature of the interior is the pew furnishing: the benches are marked with the names of the farms they were assigned to, a survival now rare among churches in the Linköping diocese. The two foremost pews bear the coats of arms of the Wärnschöld and Rosenhielm families, reflecting the manor's long involvement with the church's upkeep — Vendela Catharina Rosenhielm and her husband donated much of the early silver, textiles and furnishings.

The church has had a changing sequence of organs, the current mechanical instrument dating from 1968; by the early 2010s it was reportedly unusable, with an electric piano used instead for services, though this may since have changed. A theft in 1973 removed two silver candlesticks and a 1937 bridal crown from the church's collection.
