21300000003472 Church with cemetery |
The church was originally built during the end of the 12th c. or early 13th c. The design of the first church is known from drawings from 1788, now kept in the Swedish National Heritage Board. It was made of gray stone and consisted of a nave and chancel with apse. The cross arm in the north was added in 1697-1709, and the south in 1749-1750. From 1787-1790, the medieval church was demolished and the church received its current plan. The sacristy was built in 1868. | [1][2] | |
