Gustav Adolf Church Liverpool

The Gustaf Adolfs Kyrka was completed in 1884 specifically as a place of worship and refuge for Scandinavian seafarers and later expanded to accommodate thousands of emigrants from Scandinavian countries en route to the 'New World'. Long part of Liverpool's Baltic Triangle, this popular and treasured building remains the heart of the Nordic community in Merseyside and beyond.

"Gustav Adolf Kyrka or the Scandinavian Seamen's Church is a historical building located in Park Lane, Liverpool. It consists of a church, built between 1883 and 1884, and an attached minister's house, and provides a centre for the Liverpool International Nordic Community. The combined church and minister's house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building...........Inside the church are five plaster reliefs by Robert Anning Bell. These originally formed a reredos, but are now hung separately in the church. Also in the church are two sculptures by the local sculptor, Arthur Dooley, which depict Christ, and the Madonna."
