Skeppsholmen Church, Neoclassical concert hall on Skeppsholmen island, Sweden.

The octagonal structure features a large dome, white walls, four pillars supporting portals, and Palladian windows across its symmetrical exterior design.

The building, designed by Fredrik Blom and Gustav Adolf Blom, opened in 1842 as Karl Johans Church to replace a wooden church destroyed by fire.

The Eric Ericson International Choral Centre now hosts musical performances within the former church, maintaining the structure's connection to artistic expression.

Located at coordinates 59°19'35"N, 18°4'57"E, visitors can reach the concert hall by crossing Skeppsholmsbron bridge from central Stockholm.

The interior contains a wooden double cupola supported by paired Doric columns, with niches housing apostle statues and plaster groups.
