Sweden - Kalmar domkyrka

‘Kalmar domkyrka’ (Kalmar Cathedral) is located in the heart of the new city and dominates the central square ‘Stortorget’. According to the renaissance ideals of the mid 17th century the church and the town hall were places across from each other at the square. The new fortified city - built on the island ‘Kvarnholmen’ - was completed in the year of 1658. Two years later the construction of the cathedral started, but due to several interruptions it was finished in 1703. It has been built in a Scandinavian variant of baroque style with richly decorated facades and pilasters of limestone.
The interior of the church - remarkable bright - is laid out according to Evangelical Lutheran tenets with a focus on the main altar. This baroque altar was designed in 1704 and depicts the Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The interior shows beautiful furnishings and fixtures with graves, epitaphs and a sculpted pulpit from the mid 17th century. In the center of the ‘domkyrka’ hangs a brass chandelier with 36 arms.
