Floda Church

Floda church well known for its architecture and decorations. The original church was built in the 12th century, but the current brick church was built over it in 1886-1888. The rich mural paintings were made in 1480s by Albertus Pictor and are very well-preserved. The original colours are still visible due walls have never been whitewashed or overpainted as usually in old churches.

There is a Baroque chapel of field marshal Lars Kagg (1595-1661) in the church. It was designed by Erik Dahlbergh in 1667. In the sacristy is located a reliquary from the 15th century. The pulpit dates from 1662. There are also paintings Lars Kagg brought from Germany as a war booty, for example a Jean Boulanger's masterpiece made in 1618.
