Högalid Church, Brick church in Södermalm, Sweden.
The red brick church stands on Högalid hill with two towers reaching 84 meters, displaying National Romantic and Art Nouveau architectural elements.
Architect Ivar Tengbom designed the church in 1913, and construction lasted from 1917 until its inauguration on June 10, 1923.
The northern tower bears the name of Apostle Ansgar and represents law through its enclosed structure, crowned with a church rooster.
The church interior features high cross-vaulted naves with strong internal buttresses and niches connected by rounded arched passages for side walkways.
The dark red bricks used in the construction match those of Stockholm City Hall across Riddarfjärden, creating architectural harmony between the buildings.
