Ödeshögs kyrka

Ödeshögs kyrka stands at the centre of Ödeshög, on the old main road between Stockholm and Malmö. A church has occupied this site since the twelfth century, and the building visible today reflects centuries of alteration, including a memorably shifted chancel.

Stora Åby kyrka

Stora Åby kyrka stands on a hilltop in the open farmland of Östergötland, east of Ödeshög. Though rebuilt in its present form in 1757, the church retains elements from its medieval origins, and its site has never grown into a typical village centre.

Trehörna kyrka

Trehörna kyrka is a wooden church on the shore of Trehörnasjön in Östergötland, painted white to resemble stone. Though built in 1861, it was not formally consecrated until its centenary a century later — a quirk that visitors often find intriguing.
