Gothenburg Cathedral
Gothenburg Cathedral offers a restrained church interior in the city centre, with pale colours and gilded details. It suits a focused architectural stop rather than an elaborate sightseeing programme.

The contrast between modest colours and carefully worked decoration rewards close looking. White, grey and gold frame a gilded altar cross and carved angels, while the choir columns imitate marble in wood. Those details give the interior its character without relying on a large collection of monuments.
What to look for
Marbled wooden choir columns imitate stone.
A gilded altar cross stands between carved angels.
