Munkkyrkan (The "Monk's Church") is located by the sea north of Yttre Kuseröd, Grebbestad. It is a natural stone formation from the Ice Age. The cave is tunnel-shaped and 11-12 meters deep. There is a large stone block on the beach called the "Altar Stone".

Hiking

To reach the cave, you have to climb over fields and scree. The "path" to the cave is no easy walk.
