Sjömanskyrkan, Gävle, Maritime church in Gävle, Sweden.
The Sjömanskyrkan features red and gold-colored brick construction with two stair towers and a pointed gable containing a rose window.
Built in 1891 by the Gävle Evangelical Lutheran Mission Association, the church provided services and shelter for visiting sailors.
The building transformed from a religious center to a music venue, now housing rehearsal spaces, a recording studio, and performance areas.
Located in central Gävle, the structure received heritage protection status in 2003, preserving its architectural elements for future generations.
The building earned the nickname 'Pehrsson's Church' after Per Pehrsson, who served as a preacher and leader for several decades.
