The need for a church in the western part of Offerdal parish was discussed from around 1830, as settlement in the area grew and the expanding Rönnöfors ironworks added to demand. A small prayer room at the works soon proved too cramped, and after years of parish debate a timber chapel was finally built and consecrated in 1862 near the works. Services were held there only a handful of times a year at first, and it took until 1920 for the parish to appoint its own resident minister.
In the early twentieth century the chapel was enlarged and given a tower, reopening as a rebuilt timber church in 1917. This building was short-lived: on a Sunday in January 1941, smoke was noticed filtering into the church during the morning service, and the wooden structure burned down rapidly, hampered by severe winter cold. Remarkably, the fittings and the church bell were saved from the flames.
The parish decided to rebuild, commissioning Stockholm architect John Åkerlund, with local builder Per Olof Olofsson of Landön carrying out the work. Construction began in 1953 and the new church was consecrated the following year. It is built of yellow brick with a taller central nave flanked by two lower aisles, a west tower and a north sacristy, its saddle roof covered in Offerdal slate quarried locally at Rönnöfors.
Inside, the church is deliberately plain. Stained-glass windows salvaged from the earlier chapel were incorporated into the new building, offering a direct link to the older church lost in the fire. The altarpiece is a mural by the Stockholm artist Torsten Nordberg depicting four biblical scenes, alongside a stone sculpture by Ivar Jonsson and a font by sculptor Carl Elmberg, both also from Stockholm.
Regional heritage authorities have described the church as a clear example of post-war architectural currents, valuing traditional forms and craftsmanship alongside a more robust character, and it has been placed under heritage protection partly because of its place in this long historical continuity of worship on the site.
