The present building replaced a Romanesque church, thought to date from the 1200s, which had fallen into poor repair and was demolished in 1894. The new church was designed by August Lindvall in Neo-Gothic style and built of machine-struck brick. Its spire, raised in July 1894 by master builder A. Malmros of Åkarp, stands around 35 metres high. Construction cost some 22,000 kronor at the time, a considerable sum for a parish that then numbered only about 100 members.
The church has a tower to the west, a rounded chancel to the east and a sacristy on the south side, the whole enclosed by a low wall and hedges.
A tangible link to the older church survives in the porch, where stones from graves once set into the medieval church floor have been built into the walls. A fifteenth-century triumphal crucifix from the old church has not remained in the parish; it is now kept in the Historical Museum of Lund University. Communion vessels and a paten dating from the 1600s, originally used in the old church, are still held by the present building.
The organ was built in 1894 by Salomon Molander & Co of Gothenburg and is a mechanical instrument with fixed combinations; an earlier contract for a different organ, agreed with a Malmö builder, was apparently not carried through. An electric organ is also present in the church.
