The church was built as the sole place of worship for what was then Bäve parish, now part of Dalaberg parish within the Diocese of Gothenburg. It sits close to Uddevalla's Islamic Centre, reflecting the mixed character of this part of the town.
The building is square in plan, with a bell tower designed to let daylight fall onto the altar below. Its swept, sheet-metal-clad tower cap appears to float on slender internal pillars, while the outer walls are built of facing brick. Inside, the worship space fans out in a semi-circular, fan-like shape, with white-painted walls and ceiling and a floor of ceramic tiles.
A glazed bay window forms a striking setting for the font, and a triumphal crucifix, made by Kjell Sjögren in 1981, hangs above the free-standing altar. Other furnishings from the same period include a woven six-part antependium by Gunilla Sjögren, a font bowl and jug in nickel silver designed by Uno Martinsson in 1987, and a candelabrum by Sune Strömberg from 1991. Twenty-four reliefs decorate the walls, adding further visual interest for those who look closely.
The church also contains a two-manual, twelve-stop organ built by Västbo Orgelbyggeri and inaugurated in 1984, along with an assembly hall and other rooms used for parish activities, including a café.
