Sankta Gertruds kyrka, Västervik
Sankta Gertruds kyrka, Västervik, Medieval church building in Västervik, Sweden
The church features a three-nave hall construction with round pillars and retains an original door opening in the southern wall of the choir.
The church construction began in 1433 when Erik of Pomerania granted citizens four years of tax exemption to support the building project.
The Wistenius organ from 1743 stands as one of Sweden's most valuable baroque instruments, known for its distinctive sound quality.
The church maintains regular opening hours between May 1st and September 30th, with specific times varying according to the month.
During World War I, the church temporarily served as a grain storage facility until its reconsecration in 1933 for religious services.
