Kyrkhult Church is Kyrkhult's parish main worship venue and is located in the center of the town of Kyrkhult. The church was built according to the plans of the architect F.GA Dahl and consecrated in 1865.

The brick church consists of three aisles, the church tower's nave in the west and the pentagonal cows apse in the east. The building material is gray stone with bricks in the door and window frames. The whitewashed facades are interrupted by large arched windows. The apse has a series of raised, small windows (inspired by a Romanesque colonial gallery). The nave is covered with a gable roof, the apse roof is selected. The tower has round arched, two-part sound windows (Romanesque design language) and ends with side gables and a short spire. The entrance is from the west side of the tower, side entrances are in the middle on the north and south long sides (marked with gable fronts). Narrow wooden pillars divide the church interior into three naves. The side aisles are covered with flat wooden roofs, while the wider and higher central aisles have a wood-paneled wooden roof. A triumphal arch marks the opening to the choir side, where the sacristy is housed behind the altarpiece. The apostles and prophets in the nave were created in 1865 by the artist Magnus (Måns) Jönsson. The church has almost 800 seats.
