Skogskyrkogården

Visit one of the heritage highlights in Stockholm - Skogskyrkogården

You will find Skogskyrkogården in Stockholm. This cemetery was created between 1917 and 1920 by two young architects, Asplund and Lewerentz, on the site of former gravel pits overgrown with pine trees.

The design present blends vegetation and architectural elements, taking advantage of irregularities in the site to create a landscape that is finely adapted to its function. It has had a profound influence in many countries of the world.

Skogskyrkogården became member of Unesco World Heritage List in 1994.
