Ingarö church, Ecclesiastical listed building complex in Värmdö Municipality, Sweden

The Ingarö church stands upon grey stone foundations and features horizontal timber construction with vertical wooden panel cladding added in 1850.

Initially named Pilhamns chapel, Baron Anders Cederström established this place of worship in 1792 for workers at Beatelund, Brunn and Bergvik farms.

Samuel Ödman, a student of Carl Linnaeus, selected the church location according to local tradition after experiencing a prophetic dream while fishing.

The church maintains regular religious services and requires advance reservations for ceremonies, with inquiries handled through the parish office number +46 857038050.

The building represents a transition in Swedish church architecture, combining traditional timber construction methods with later architectural modifications during the 1850s.
