The brick church was designed by the architect David Jansson and built between 1905 and 1908, paid for by the Grycksbo paper mill on the initiative of its manager, Henrik Munktell. It was consecrated at Whitsun 1908. Initially it was intended to serve also as a general community hall for Grycksbo, and for a time it was used in this way, before becoming a church exclusively.
The surrounding area still shows the character of an industrial settlement, with grouped, red-painted workers' housing from the early 1900s standing to the south and east of the church.
Ownership passed from the paper mill to Grycksbo parish in 1952, following a substantial renovation carried out in 1951–52. During this work the pews and pulpit were replaced, and the layout of the church interior was altered: the chancel was moved and the central aisle, previously set diagonally through the building, was realigned to run parallel with the walls.
A further renovation in 1972 saw the sacristy relocated and the original 1912 organ, built by E. A. Setterquist & Son of Örebro, placed in storage; a new organ from the Danish firm Jensen & Thomsen was installed in its place.
Among the furnishings, the font and its two accompanying candlesticks were made by Jerk Werkmäster in 1963. A wall hanging above the font, along with several other textiles, was donated by the parish sewing circle. The pulpit dates from the 1951–52 renovation, and the altarpiece, painted by Emma Sparre, depicts an angel proclaiming Christ's resurrection. The church bell in the tower was cast in 1906 by Johan A. Beckman in Stockholm.
