Härnösand Cathedral, Lutheran cathedral in Härnösand, Sweden.
Härnösand Cathedral is a church building with neoclassical style marked by clean lines and upright proportions. The slender tower rises clearly above the surroundings and forms a landmark in the city view.
The first place of worship at this location was destroyed in 1721, which led to rebuilding. The present building was created in the 19th century and rebuilt according to new designs.
The cathedral holds art pieces that have shaped community life across generations. These works tell of the religious tradition that connected with the traders and sailors who built the city.
Visitors find here a quiet place to stay, both inside the church and in the cemetery. It is worth planning time to explore the details of the interior.
The carillon with 37 bells from the 1980s creates musical moments regularly in the city. Combined with the large organ, the place offers an unusual acoustic dimension.
