Historic Churches & Cathedrals
Västernorrland’s religious heritage spans from medieval stone ruins to the grand neoclassical Härnösand Cathedral. This collection features the 12th-century Selånger church ruins, a key starting point for the St. Olav Ways pilgrimage, and the exceptionally preserved medieval murals of Ytterlännäs Old Church. From the neogothic wooden architecture of Holms kyrka to the historic parish centers of Anundsjö and Alnö, these sites illustrate the region’s architectural transition from the Middle Ages through the 19th-century expansion of the Swedish Church.
