Christdala Church is located in Forest Township on Rice County Highway One, two miles west of Millersburg, Minnesota. The Church and its surrounding cemetery are prominently situated on one and one-eighth acres of land on a hill overlooking Circle Lake.  The building is original, constructed in 1878, and has never been moved or altered.

Today, the Christdala Church is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Though the congregation is no longer active, the structure and cemetery are maintained by the Christdala Church Preservation and Cemetery Association and continue to reflect on the distinctive contributions that Swedish immigrants made here.

The Minnesota Historical Society notes; "The simple massing and style of this late Gothic Revival church are typical of the small, wood-frame country churches found in the Småland, Blekinge and Skåne provinces of Sweden. Built by the first Swedish immigrants to Rice County, the church stands as a lasting reminder of the broad impact of the early Swedish settlers here and in many Minnesota communities."
