Tjolöholms Slottskyrka - The castle church was built in 1903-1904 on the initiative of the owner of Tjolöholms estate, Mrs. Blanche Dickson, and designed by the architect Hans Hedlund. Mrs. Dickson was very religious and wanted staff to be able to go to church.After being unused for many years, the Castle Church was renovated and 90 years after the consecration in 1994, Tjolöholm Church was reconsecrated. The treasures of the church were also restored. The beautiful chandeliers, candelabra, communion vessels and baptismal font will be reused. The pulpit, altar and altarpiece are the originals. The beautiful windows in the chancel are original, probably designed by Hans Hedlund. But no one knows why one of the leaves in the window on the left is undyed... In December 2006 the new church organ was inaugurated, which was largely built with generous donations.Tjolöholms Slottskyrka is an ecumenical church, ie open to all Christian communities, and can accommodate a total of 180 guests. There is prayer and worship at the church on the Christmas and New Year weekends and in the summer, please check the calendar for current times.WEDDING IN THE CASTLE CHURCH
