Skallsjö Church

Skallsjö Church is a stone building in the Floda area of Lerum Municipality featuring traditional Swedish architectural design. The structure is surrounded by a cemetery that forms part of the overall church complex.

The present building was constructed between 1861 and 1863 to replace an earlier church from the 13th century. The ruins of the original structure remain standing about two kilometers southwest of the current site.

The church serves as a gathering place where locals come for worship and community events throughout the year. It remains central to religious life in the area and is maintained by Svenska kyrkan.

The church is easily accessible and welcomes visitors exploring the area. It's worth spending time to walk around the cemetery and the surrounding grounds at a relaxed pace.

The remains of the original medieval church still stand at a separate location and provide a fascinating glimpse into different building eras. This coexistence of two church structures from different centuries is quite striking for regional architecture.
