Norrlanda Church

Norrlanda combines an elaborate sculpted entrance with fifteenth-century wall paintings. The small older tower beside a larger Gothic body makes its medieval rebuilding easy to recognise.

Why go

The main portal provides the strongest introduction: the Resurrection appears above, with scenes from the early lives of Christ and Mary around the capitals. Inside, Passion Master paintings extend the religious storytelling across the walls. The combination gives sculpture and painting equal weight, with two surviving medieval churchyard gateways adding interest to the approach.

What to look for

  • The Gothic main portal is attributed to the Egypticus workshop.
  • Wall paintings include Passion scenes, saints, devils and women.
  • The sandstone baptismal font dates from 1735.

Useful to know

  • Begin at the medieval churchyard gateways and carved main portal before entering.
  • Verify interior visiting arrangements with the parish, especially when travelling outside the summer season.
