The church was constructed during the 1400s, replacing an earlier wooden building on the site. It follows the late medieval hall-church design, without the chancel arch or apse that mark out the chancel in many other churches; instead a rectangular nave ends simply in a straight east wall. A sacristy to the north and a porch to the west were added during a renovation in the 1790s, giving the building its present outline. The church has no tower; its two bells hang instead in a freestanding wooden bell-frame erected in 1741 at the south-west corner of the churchyard.
Inside, the font in limestone dates from 1948, the work of the Malmö sculptor Jonas Fröding. The altarpiece, painted in 1794 by Pehr Hörberg and depicting the theme sometimes translated as "Behold the Man", is set within a Neoclassical altar surround. A richly carved late Baroque pulpit with its sounding board dates from 1703, and the enclosed pews with doors reflect a Renaissance-influenced style. A small window on the south side received a stained-glass depiction of a sower by the artist Sven Joann in 1961, adding a touch of twentieth-century colour to the older interior.
The organ has an eventful history: an instrument was built in 1768 by Jonas Hielm of Växjö, followed in 1795 by an eleven-stop organ from Pehr Schiörlin of Linköping. This in turn was replaced in 1893 by a new organ from Carl Elfström of Ljungby, later rebuilt and rearranged in 1942 and 1964. The organ heard today was built in 1991 by Nils Hammarberg, though it retains the older Schiörlin case front, linking the current instrument visually to the church's eighteenth-century past.
