The present church was raised in 1789 by the farmers of the parish, who undertook the work at considerable sacrifice during what was, elsewhere in Europe, the year of the French Revolution. Sources differ slightly on the consecration date: one account gives 1794, when the church was reportedly dedicated by Bishop Olof Wallquist, while other material simply emphasises the 1789 building date without mentioning a separate consecration.
The church stands on the site of an earlier medieval stone church dating from the 13th century. Traces of that older building survive: part of its north wall is said to be incorporated into the present structure, and its old stone floor is preserved in the porch. One source also notes that a section of the earlier west wall still exists, though now standing isolated in the middle of the churchyard rather than forming part of the church itself.
Architecturally, the church is built of grey stone in a neoclassical style, with a single nave, rectangular plan, an extended sacristy to the east and a tower to the west. The exterior is rendered and limewashed white, with shingled roofs except for the tower and lantern, which were reclad in copper in 1992. The church sits attractively on an east–west axis by the shore of Lake Långasjön, surrounded by its churchyard and a memorial garden.
Inside, the altarpiece dates from 1957 and was painted by Elisabeth Bergstrand-Poulsen, who also produced four further paintings displayed on the west wall beneath the gallery. On the south wall of the nave hangs a triumphal crucifix dating from the 16th century, a striking survival that predates the current building by more than two centuries.
Climbing from the porch into the bell tower, visitors find three bells, the oldest of which dates back to the medieval period, a further link to the church that once stood on this spot before 1789.
