The idea of building a church here dates back to the 1930s, but the outbreak of the Second World War forced the plans to be shelved. Building work finally began in 1959, with the first spadeful of earth turned in January 1960, and the church was consecrated before the year was out. A remarkably persistent parish sewing circle had spent thirty years raising funds, eventually contributing some 435,000 kronor towards the cost of construction, with further support from a Gothenburg foundation for small churches.
The building is a plain, unadorned structure of red facing brick on a concrete base, with a side-set entrance and a saddle-shaped roof lined with sparse timber panelling. Inside, the colour scheme of brick-red, white and blue creates a simple, coherent effect. The altar is table-like and stands centrally against the end wall, while both the pulpit and font are built from the same red facing brick as the exterior, giving the interior a notably unified character. According to Wikipedia, the building has changed little since it was completed.
A free-standing brick bell tower, paid for with funds from a municipal source, stands near the church. Among the fittings, the altar, pulpit and a crucifix are decorated with mosaic work by the artist Gun Setterdahl. Other items, including communion silver, vestments and altar cloths, were given to the parish as donations over the years.
A parish hall was added to the building in the 1970s, reflecting the church's continuing use as a community as well as a place of worship. The mechanical organ, built by A. Magnusson Orgelbyggeri and installed in 1966, has ten stops across two manuals and pedal.
