Däldernas kapell

The chapel was built in 1928–29 to designs by architect Ernst Rendahl, with the building work carried out by master builder Axel Wallin and decorative painting by K. J. R. Johansson. It was raised as a satellite to S:ta Helena kyrka in Skövde, intended for outdoor and local congregations who found the three to four kilometre walk into town inconvenient, particularly for the open-air summer services that had been held in the area during the 1920s. A local committee, and a foundation established for the purpose, raised the funds needed, including a substantial contribution from the Dälderna sewing circle. Bishop Hjalmar Danell consecrated the completed chapel in 1929.

The building is a timber structure with white-painted standing panel cladding and a saddle roof covered in single-curved clay tiles. Its plan is a simple rectangular nave with the chancel to the north and a slightly narrower porch to the south. A freestanding bell tower was added in 1933. In the early 1980s a parish hall extension was built, linked to the chapel by a passage, to accommodate the growing programme of church activities for all ages that had developed as housing estates spread around the site.

Inside, the chapel has a plain, sturdy timber character. The original fixed pews were removed during the 1983 renovation and replaced with loose chairs, and a freestanding table altar now stands before an unpainted wooden end wall. A carved crucifix by the wood artist Eva Spångberg is a notable feature, along with a 1983 pine font in an hourglass form, its glass bowl held by four gilded cross-arms.

The chapel houses an organ built in 1984 by the Finn Krohn organ workshop, with eight stops across two manuals. With seating for around 90 people, the building continues to be used for baptisms, memorial gatherings and other parish occasions, alongside choirs for both children and adults.
