The current stone church, built in a restrained neoclassical style, was the first of its kind in Gothenburg diocese. It is whitewashed, with a saddle-roofed nave, a west tower topped by a copper-clad lantern, and an apse-shaped sacristy to the east. Its exterior is somewhat heavier and its windows narrower than those of neoclassical churches built later in the 19th century.
Construction was marked by disaster: as the building work was nearing completion, lightning struck the tower, causing severe destruction, killing three people and injuring nearly two hundred. Repairs took a year to complete. The church was later renovated in 1857, and underwent a major restoration in 1951 under architect Axel Forssén, during which remnants of an older stone altar were found and the altarpiece from the previous church had its original colouring restored.
The most treasured object is the font, carved from sandstone in the 12th century in two parts and signed by the stonemason known as Mäster Andreas, who is also known for fonts from Gällstad and Finnekumla churches, now held at the Swedish History Museum. The font's base and bowl are decorated with round-arched arcades containing figures including the Lamb of God, a cross, foliage and armed figures, though the carving has suffered damage from weathering over the centuries.
The altarpiece and pulpit, both thought to date from the 1600s, were brought from the earlier church and conserved during the 1951 restoration; most of the images on the gallery front are also said to originate from that older building.
The church has had a succession of organs, beginning with a nine-stop instrument built in 1831 and later instruments from the 1890s and early twentieth century, before the current mechanical organ was installed in 1967 by Lindegren Orgelbyggeri, retaining an older façade from 1892. Among former incumbents, Erik Rosenius is particularly remembered as the progenitor of four Swedish noble families.
