The present church was built between 1896 and 1899 to designs by the architect Fredrik Lilljekvist, replacing an earlier chapel that had stood on the same site since 1346. That older chapel, extended in 1696 and 1714, was demolished when the new church went up, and its timbers were sold in parts to the Vislanda free-church congregation. Sources differ slightly on the completed church's stylistic label, describing it variously as National Romantic with medieval-inspired timber features or as Neo-Gothic; both may be reasonable characterisations of the same building.
The church consists of a rectangular nave with a tower to the east and a chancel to the west, a narrower and lower sacristy extension beyond the chancel, and porches on both the north and south sides. The exterior walls are clad in wooden shingles, a detail typical of Swedish timber churches of the period. The main entrance is through the tower's ground floor.
A stained-glass chancel window depicting the Ascension of Christ serves as the altarpiece; it was a gift from churchwarden Jon Nilsson of Ugglehult. The window was taken down in 1953 during renovation work, and accounts suggest the chancel was rebuilt as a sacristy around this time, with the painted window removed; it was reportedly reinstated by 1988, when the church was reconsecrated following extensive restoration.
Among the church's furnishings are a fragment of a medieval stone font kept in the porch, and the current font, donated in 1954 by the Aneboda ladies' sewing circle. Two panels depicting apostles, thought to have belonged to the pulpit of the earlier chapel, hang on the south wall, while the north wall holds a sixteenth-century sculpture of the Virgin and Child and an older figure, said to date from the fourteenth century, representing Saint Olof.
The organ was built in 1899 by Carl Elfström of Ljungby and later renovated in 1970; it remains a mechanical instrument typical of small Swedish rural churches of its era.
