Construction probably began in the late 12th century. A 13th-century shrine is located in the niche in the chancel. On the north side of the chancel is the communion cabinet, where the consecrated communion bread is kept; a red prayer lamp marks the presence of Christ. Two medieval saints, the Virgin Mary to the north and the patron saint of Olof the Saint to the south, indicate the church's importance as a pilgrimage church. A fire in 1898 destroyed the 17th-century decorative wall paintings. The church was rebuilt after the fire, but it was not until 1930 that the interior of the church acquired the appearance it has today.

Next to it there is a room for pilgrims with water and toilet.
