The church in Hässleholm was built of handmade red bricks from the brickworks in Yddinge and stands on a granite base. It was consecrated in 1914, the same year that Hässleholm became a town. The plans were made by Fredrik Sundbärg. In 1957 the roof tiles were removed and copper tiles were put on. During the renovation in the 1980s, the crumbling bricks on the facades were replaced and repointed with lime mortar.

New walls were erected on the remains of the old ones, and the nave was extended to the west.

Most of the interior of the Haug church was lost in a fire in 1818, except for the altarpiece and some furniture.
