The lovely Storkyrkan sits right by the Royal Palace in Gamla Stan and is well worth stepping into. As the cathedral of the Church of Sweden and the royal family’s church, it’s richly decorated, and quite elegant. The gold details, silver altar, and artwork stand out, and the St. George and the Dragon statue is especially impressive up close. Honestly the St. George slaying the dragon alone made it worth checking out. Overall: A calm, beautiful place to slow down for a bit.
Beautiful church, chock-a-block with art from across the centuries, floor memorials worn beyond reading, baroque decor, and just general beauty. Interesting, compared to churches in the UK and to the south, the aesthetic impact of visible brick construction.nnAccessible via the Go City card. Worth picking up the little brochure multiple languages as a guide. Definitely worth the visit.
Having seen the statue of George and the Dragon in stone on the street during a city tour, seeing the original in wood was a must see, it does not disappoint.nThe inside is full of fantastic carvings including some Lutheran angels you’ll have to do the audio tour or google this.
Very nice Cathedral in Stockholm. It has an interesting history. There is en entrance fee to visit the Cathedral, if I remember well it was around 120 SEK.
A simple cathedral. Inside is definitely better than the outside. There are nice statues, models and pictures. A calm and cozy place to visit as a tourist or pray. Go city pass grants entry.
