Norrtälje Church, Church complex in Norrtälje, Sweden

Norrtälje Church features a three-sided choir, vaulted ceilings, and a tower that was elevated and redesigned in 1854 by architect J. F. Åbom.

The current stone church, completed in 1726, replaced the original wooden Mariakyrkan that Russian troops burned down during their attack on the town in 1719.

The church displays sculptures of Olaus Petri and Ansgar carved in 1940, along with stained glass artworks designed by glass artist Randi Fischer.

Located at Kyrkogatan 4 in Norrtälje, the church accommodates 285 people and remains open for visits on weekdays between 10:00 and 15:00.

In 1902, this religious building became the first church in Sweden to receive electrical illumination, with an installation of 202 clear light bulbs.
