Habo Church, Wooden church building in Habo Municipality, Sweden.

The church follows a basilica design with a tall central nave and two lower side aisles constructed entirely from wood and extending over multiple levels.

Originally constructed in 1680, the church received its current architectural form in 1723 and contains paintings from 1741-1743 depicting Martin Luther's teachings.

The interior walls and ceiling display detailed religious artworks by Johan Kinnerius and Johan Christian Peterson, illustrating fundamental Christian doctrine through paintings.

Located at coordinates 57.88536 latitude and 14.02107 longitude, the church maintains regular services under the administration of Svenska Kyrkan.
