1. Vasteras Cathedral
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By SonjaB9 - Stockholm, Sweden
This cathedral dates back to the eleven hundreds and has been added to during the centuries. A renovation in the middle of the 20th century brought forward many of the best features from the passed centuries and added some new as the different looking lamps on the columns as well as the pulpit made of ceramic. The “new” organ produces beautiful music and there is much to see like the epitaphs and the well known sarcophagus of Erik the 14th who was poisoned by his brother Johan. Poison in his pea soup it is claimed. The tower of the cathedral is a landmark and beautiful to look at because of its shape and proportions. Outside you can see a sculpture of bishop Rudbeckius who in 1623 started the first high school (“gymnasium” ) in Sweden. The present school is located next to the cathedral as is “Proban” (on the other side) which was the prison for pupils and teachers who were punished for drunkenness etc. Go and see it all!
