The chapel was constructed between 1934 and 1936 on the initiative of the Lindö kyrkliga syförening (a local church sewing circle), which raised funds to buy land at what is now Lindöhällsvägen. The architect was Kurt von Schmalensee, and the building was consecrated in 1936. It is a timber-framed structure with rendered walls and a pitched roof, seating around 70 people. Parish hall buildings adjoin the chapel to the north and south.
In 1951 a freestanding bell tower was added, built using timber felled on the chapel's own plot — a nice example of the congregation making do with what was to hand.
The sewing circle's fundraising did not stop with the building itself: over the years it also paid for a piano, an organ, and various textiles for the interior. The current altar, made of beech by master joiner Bertil Johansson of Markaryd, was installed in 1992. Above it hangs an altarpiece depicting the widow's son at Nain, painted by an unknown artist.
Several further furnishings — candlesticks, vases, the font and a processional cross — were designed and made by the artist Christer Wide of Kolmården, giving the interior a degree of stylistic unity. An eight-stop pipe organ from Åkerman & Lund, bought in the 1970s, was replaced in 2002 by a digital organ with a larger number of stops.
