Strängnäs Cathedral

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Strängnäs Cathedral is built style. The original church was built out of wood, probably during the first decades of the 13th century, on the same important hill where Viking rituals used to take place and where the missionary Saint Eskil had been killed some decades ago. The wooden church was not replaced by a cathedral of stone and bricks until 1296, just after Strängnäs became a Diocese.
