The idea of a church for Sävedalen took shape gradually. A plot of land was purchased by Partille kyrkoråd as early as 1934, and by 1939 it had passed into the parish's ownership following a formal petition submitted two years earlier, reflecting the area's rapid growth at the time. Wartime preparedness years and subsequent post-war building restrictions delayed construction for two decades. The church, designed by architect Axel Forssén, was finally completed and consecrated on 30 November 1959 by Bishop Bo Giertz.
The building is constructed of concrete clad in red facing brick, with slate covering all the roofs. It comprises a nave with a chancel and apse to the east, a sacristy to the south, and a tower at the north-western corner of the nave. Later additions, built in the same style, provided office space. Inside, the chancel and front of the nave are laid with tiled flooring, while the rear is covered in linoleum, and the walls are whitewashed throughout.
Several furnishings date from the church's completion in 1959. The sandstone font was carved by sculptor Erling Valldeby to Forssén's own designs, and the altar is of black marble set on a brick pedestal. Behind the altar hangs a woven tapestry by Sofia Widén, while a painting by Einar Forseth is displayed above the baptismal altar. The altar cross, candlesticks, vases and communion vessels were designed by Tore Eldh.
The main organ was built by Hammarbergs Orgelbyggeri and inaugurated in 1962, with a smaller chancel organ added by A. Magnusson Orgelbyggeri in 1984.
