Sorunda church, Medieval church in Nynäshamn Municipality, Sweden.
Sorunda Church is a stone building that rises above farmlands and forests in Stockholm County, marking the center of the rural community. The structure has thick walls and multiple extensions built during different periods.
The church was built in the 12th century but was later rebuilt and expanded in the 15th and 16th centuries. These changes show how the community evolved over several centuries.
The wooden carvings inside show medieval religious artworks that express the beliefs of people from that time.
The building is located at Kyrkgatan 26 and can be reached by car via Road 225 or by local buses from Stockholm. Visitors should check when regular services take place to see the interior when it is open.
It was one of the largest rural churches in Södermanland Province and contained burial chapels for local aristocratic families. These chapels show the connection between the church and regional nobility.
