This church was built at the turn of the 20c. It's got lots if gothic moves, however. It'f form is a vaulted cross but as its denomination is Church of Sweden (Lutheran, more or less) it has no chapels, limited sculpture and understated embelishments. That's not to say it's not grand. The walls and columns are of battered granite blocks, sleekly primitive, with low relief geometric designs carved to heavens.
The pipe organ's is in the loft at the end of building, the entry with narthex in the middle, the pulpit raised before the alter at the opposite end.
