Husaby Church, Medieval stone church in Götene Municipality, Sweden
The building features steep sandstone walls and two high towers, with arches and a baptismal font dating from the 13th century.
The current stone structure replaced an original wooden church from the 11th century, with construction completed in the early 12th century.
The church maintains a medieval bishop's seat and two graves traditionally attributed to King Olof Skötkonung and his wife Estrid.
The Svenska Kyrkan manages the church, offering religious services and maintaining the ecclesiastical listed building complex for visitors.
Near the church stands a well where King Olof Skötkonung, the first Christian king of Sweden, received baptism in 1008.
