The present church was built between 1818 and 1822, replacing a medieval church that had stood roughly four kilometres to the east in Kyrkbyn. That older building was demolished around 1820, and its stone was reused in the foundations of the new church; a walled ruin still marks the site today. The new building was designed by the architect Axel Almfelt in the neoclassical long-church form typical of the era, with a tower above the main entrance.
Despite the church's comparatively recent construction, several older furnishings were brought across from the demolished medieval church. The pulpit, carved in Baroque style in 1663 and later altered in 1746, is attributed to the joiner Jonas Andersson of Falun, whose initials appear on the woodwork. It was restored in 1964, when its original colours were uncovered beneath later overpainting. Sources differ slightly on the exact carved decoration described as accompanying the pulpit, so this should be read as approximate.
One of the most notable objects is the font, carved around the year 1200 by the Gotland stonemason Sighraf — making it by far the oldest surviving item in the church and a rare survival from the original medieval building.
The altarpiece, a striking work by the artist Uno Vallman (also spelt Wallman in some sources), was completed in 1964 and remains a focal point of the chancel. The pews date from the 1960s and are finished in a pale green stain.
The church organ has an interesting history of its own: an 1846 instrument by Lars Niclas Nordqvist of Alfta was rebuilt in the 1920s and again in 1973, when the current organ was installed, retaining the façade of the original 1846 case.
