The church was built in 1965–1966 to designs by the architect Jaan Allpere, replacing no earlier place of worship on this precise site as far as the sources record. It was consecrated on Saturday 1 October 1966 by Bishop Sven Silén. As an industrial-village church built for a mining and works community, it reflects the mid-twentieth-century wave of new church construction in Sweden's smaller settlements.
Architecturally, the building is simple and geometric: a cube-shaped nave in brick, rendered and painted white, with a narrower semicircular chancel to the east. A sacristy is attached to the north side, lit by a large gridded window above it, while a timber parish hall extends from the west end. A freestanding bell tower, added later in 1993–1994, stands to the south-west of the church.
Inside, the chancel platform, altar, pulpit and font are all built of slag brick, giving the interior a distinctive rugged texture consistent with the exterior materials. The font's cast-glass basin was created by the sculptor Tord Ohlsson and made at the Gullaskruf glassworks. Pews are of pine, set on brick piers, and the ceiling is hung with striking chandeliers designed by Lil Allpere, their iron arms carrying spherical glass shades suspended from vertical beams.
The church has a small mechanical choir organ with five stops, built by A. Magnussons Orgelbyggeri in Mölnlycke, its case made of pine and positioned at the north side of the chancel.
