Fish Church, Seafood market in Centrum, Sweden

The stone building features high ceilings, arched windows, and gothic architectural elements that create an open interior space for the fish vendors.

Architect Victor von Gegerfelt completed this market hall in 1874, drawing inspiration from Norwegian church design to construct a pillar-free structure.

The market preserves Gothenburg's maritime traditions through fresh seafood sales, local fish preparation methods, and direct connections with regional fishing communities.

Located on Rosenlundsgatan, the market operates from Monday through Friday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with Saturday hours until 3:00 PM.

The building received its name because its architectural design resembles a church, complete with spires and religious-style structural elements.
