Engelbrektskyrkans kolumbarium, Cinerarium at Engelbrecht Church in Stockholm, Sweden.

The columbarium extends 40 meters into bedrock beneath Engelbrecht Church, featuring marble walls and indirect lighting that creates brightness throughout the space.

The columbarium, designed by architect Åke Tengelin and inaugurated in 1961, originated from a World War II bomb shelter beneath Engelbrecht Church.

The interior contains four stained glass windows by Einar Forseth and an altar crucifix by Bertil Nyström, reflecting Swedish religious artistry.

Visitors can access the columbarium at Karlavägen 13 from Tuesday through Sunday between 13:00 and 16:00, with extended hours during All Saints' Weekend.

The floor is covered with gravel to emulate a burial ground, while the marble niches come from three sources: Mölnbo, Italy, and Gotland.

Location: Stockholm Municipality

Part of: Engelbrecht Church
