Sara Kulturhus, Cultural center in Skellefteå, Sweden.

The Sara Kulturhus stands 75 meters tall as a wooden structure incorporating cross-laminated timber and glued laminated timber throughout its twenty floors.

Opening in September 2021, this wooden building represents a milestone in sustainable architecture, becoming the second tallest mass-timber construction in the world.

Named after author Sara Lidman, the center houses the Västerbotten Regional Theatre, Museum Anna Nordlander, Skellefteå Art Gallery, and the city library.

The facility includes six performance stages with seating for 1200 people, plus exhibition spaces, a hotel with 205 rooms, and charging stations for electric vehicles.

The building employs heating and cooling systems regulated by the adjacent Skellefteå River, while solar panels and geothermal heat pumps minimize energy consumption.
