Bethlehem Church, Protestant church in Vasastaden, Stockholm, Sweden

The Bethlehem Church features a rectangular structure accommodating 400 people, designed according to mid-20th century architectural principles at Luntmakargatan 82.

The original church near Hötorget, consecrated in 1840 as Sweden's first free church building, was demolished in 1953 during Norrmalm's redevelopment.

The church maintains services in both Swedish and Tigrinya languages, reflecting the diversity of its congregation and community engagement.

The current building contains a pipe organ with 35 stops and three manuals, along with the preserved pulpit from the original church structure.

Sofia Widén created the altar tapestry titled Den heliga staden, representing the Holy City through textile artistry.
