    A beautiful, beautiful location. The inside has stunning acoustics and we were even lucky enough to be allowed in the look around when the chior was practising. The altar is an astounding work of art. The metal around the lights and chandeliers creates a stunning ethereal light effect. This building is so worth visiting if in Stockholm. There are many unique and interesting pieces in the church including a pulpit, domed ceiling and newish organ.

    Magnificent church built in 1906. The altar is a very beautiful piece of art, it was sculpted in 1730 and was expected to be installed in the Uppsala catedral, but instead was later installed in this church

    Eine grosse und noch junge Kirche mit feiner Innenausstattung. Sehr schön ist auch die Orgel und wenn man das Glück hat, bei der Probe eines Orgelkonzertes zuhören zu dürfen, schätzt man auch die Akustik. Definitiv einen kurzen Abstecher wert.

    Amazing when you open the church door, light, huge and wide. Walk around the church you can find the stable, sheeps and a baby.

  • 5/5 PRUTHVI R. 1 year ago on Google • 65 reviews
    One of the largest church in Stockholm. History dated back to many centuries. Beautiful and magnificent inside as well as outside. Marble sculptures insides the church, colour frescoes were painted on the walls as well as the inside of the huge dome. As a signature European design the exterior of the dome/tower is cover with copper, part painted in black and part in turquoise because of the oxidation if copper. It’s close by Odenplan station.

  • 4/5 Ana V. 1 year ago on Google
    Huge and beautiful church, although I wasn't able to enter because I was with my dog. This church is from 1906 and was named after King Gustav Vasa. It's one of the biggest churches in Stockholm, as it can seat 1200 people. It's easy to get there by public transportation (I don't think it's easy to go by car, as parking in Stockholm is difficult).

    Superb church in the middle of Sthlm on Odenplan. Great organ does not get enough playtime. Nice female priest at time writing, limited audience due to corona. Well worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Bill B. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful church with a stunning altar piece. And a camel (not sure why!). Great acoustics for my son's concert.
