Northern Lights Cathedral

Reviewed By Davvebiegga - Germany, null

I am completely non-religious, but I like to visit churches in the Nordic countries. The rather new church is really very particular and unusual. There is a small entrance fee and you can also purchase a ticket for the very interesting Northern Lights Museum in the basement of the church.
