Before the chapel existed, residents of Landeryd already held regular services locally rather than making the long journey to the parish church at Långaryd. Meetings were first held in a schoolroom, then in a temperance hall, reflecting the practical, community-driven origins of the building that would eventually take shape.
A fund for a dedicated chapel began in 1917 through a church sewing circle, and support gathered pace after the Landeryd Church Working Association was formed in 1922. The chapel was built in 1924 to designs by the engineer Carlander of Hyltebruk: a timber structure roughly 25 by 9 metres, clad in wooden shingles over four-inch planking, with a tiled roof and a copper-clad tower some 27 metres high, positioned at the eastern end. The chapel and its churchyard were consecrated at Whitsun in 1926.
The congregation continued repaying the building loan until it was cleared in 1940, and in 1950 the chapel was formally transferred to Långaryd parish, becoming a parish church in its own right. A parish hall was added in 1982.
Among the church's furnishings is a striking altarpiece in the chancel: a cross formed from glass mosaic, created in 1961 by Eric Olson of Halmstad, with eight glass panels depicting episodes from the life of Christ. There is also a sculpture of the Virgin Mary made by Eva Spångberg of Gamla Hjelmseryd.
The church has had two organs. A pneumatic instrument was built in 1955 by Tostareds Kyrkorgelfabrik; this was later replaced by the current organ, built in 1989 by Västbo Orgelbyggeri of Långaryd.
