Härnösand Cathedral, Lutheran cathedral in Härnösand, Sweden.

The cathedral features a neoclassical design with a 46-meter tower and grand proportions that define the cityscape of Härnösand.

Following destruction by Russian troops in 1721, the current cathedral structure opened in 1846, designed by architect Johan Adolf Hawerman.

The cathedral contains a Spanish silver baptismal font from 1777 and an altar painting by David von Coln from the 18th century.

The cathedral functions as the main church of the Diocese of Härnösand, overseeing 113 parishes across Västernorrland County.

A 37-bell carillon installed in 1981 by Bergholtz Bellfoundry adds to the cathedral's musical capabilities alongside its 57-stop organ.
