The chapel was built in 1831 at the initiative of local fishermen, including one named Lars-Erik Löf, and was used jointly by fishing communities on Lövgrund and the neighbouring island of Vitgrund. It reflects a tradition of small chapels built by and for fishing communities along the Swedish coast, serving people who spent much of the year working away from their home parish.
The building is simple and unassuming: a timber-log structure with a rectangular nave and a straight-ended chancel to the east, its exterior clad in white-painted standing panel boarding. A short distance to the west stands a separate freestanding bell tower, housing a bell cast in 1864 by N.P. Lindberg of Sundsvall.
Inside, the chancel wall holds an oil painting depicting the Resurrection of Christ, a copy of Fredric Westin's altarpiece in Kungsholm Church in Stockholm. The copy was painted by Axel Ludvig Wiberg and donated to the chapel in 1859. Beneath the painting is a combined altar and pulpit structure, with the altar itself positioned in front.
Some sources note the chapel may be booked for baptisms or weddings through the local parish office, though visitors should confirm any such arrangements independently, as access to island chapels of this kind is often seasonal and dependent on transport.
