Bräkne-Hoby Church
Bräkne-Hoby Church, Neo-Romanesque church in Bräkne-Hoby, Sweden
Bräkne-Hoby Church is a neo-Romanesque building featuring a three-nave basilica design built with limestone and brick, with smooth plastered walls and a prominent bell tower. The tower was completed in 1992 and defines the building's profile today.
Built between 1868 and 1872 by architect Helgo Zettervall, the church replaced an earlier medieval stone building from the 12th century. The new construction happened during a period of church modernization across the region.
Inside, you can see a sandstone baptismal font from the 1200s and wall paintings by Danish artist Paul Høm that reflect regional artistic styles. These works shape the visual character of the interior today.
The building can hold around 700 people and has modern features such as geothermal heating and accessible facilities. Visitors with different mobility needs will find good accommodation here.
The organ from 1872, built by Carl August Johansson, was later expanded to 20 stops but remains largely original. The church also safeguards a gold chalice from the 1700s as a special historical treasure.
