Katarina Church Stockholm, Lutheran church in Södermalm, Sweden
The Katarina Church stands as a cross-shaped structure with a central dome and four corner towers on Södermalm island in Stockholm.
The original church, built in 1695 and named after Princess Catherine, burned down in 1723 before being rebuilt by architect Göran Josuæ Adelcrantz.
The church grounds contain graves of notable figures, including Swedish politician Anna Lindh and the creator of the Pippi Longstocking stories, Astrid Lindgren.
Visitors can access guided tours of the church and its towers, offering views across Stockholm, with regular religious services held throughout the week.
The church features a modern organ built by van den Heuvel in 2000, designed according to the original 1751 plans with 61 stops across three manuals.
