Frösö Church

Frösö church is one of Jämtland's major tourist attractions. It can be dated back to the twelfth or 12th century. The altarpiece and pulpit are both from the 18th century. The attractive and characteristic bell tower, which stands separately from the church, was built in the 18th century. A raging fire in 1898 left only the foundations remain, but all the interiors were rescued. Archaeological investigations indicate that the church was built on a pagan site of sacrifice.

The church has become known among other things, by composer Wilhelm Peterson-Berger's compositions. The magnificent view around Frösö church has also made it one of the most popular wedding churches in Sweden.
