Gryta Church
Description
The age of Gryta Church is unknown. The first church, probably a wooden one, was built there in the 1000’s. How old present stone church is impossible to say, the remains of earlier church can be hidden in the gray stone walls, covered by a thick plaster layer.
The church is richly decorated with mural paintings and they are well preserved. The paintings might have been done by Albert the Painter (Albertus Pictor). The paintings are dated to the year 1487 due the inscription on the south wall.
The pulpit, acquired in 1697, is the oldest object in the church. The bell tower has two bells. It was built in the 1752.
