Storkyrkan, Medieval cathedral in Gamla Stan, Sweden

The cathedral features a brick pillar-supported vaulted ceiling, a Baroque altar, medieval sculptures, and elaborate stone carvings throughout its interior space.

Built in 1279, Storkyrkan has witnessed numerous royal ceremonies, including the wedding of Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel in 2010.

The wooden statue of Saint George and the Dragon from 1489 stands as a testament to Swedish craftsmanship and victory over Danish forces.

Located at Trångsund 1 in Stockholm, the cathedral remains open for visitors and maintains regular religious services throughout the week.

The Vädersoltavlan painting from 1535 displays an atmospheric phenomenon over Stockholm and represents the oldest known depiction of the city.
