Farhult Church

The medieval Farhults Kyrka is located about 10 kilometers east of Höganäs near the village Farhult on the north side of the peninsula Kullen.The church of Farhult was built at the beginning of the 13th century in the Romanesque style of fieldstone. Farhults Kyrka consists of a nave with a small, low choir room and a semicircular apse. The vault in the nave and choir was added later in the 15th century, the tower with the stepped gables comes from the same century.The apse paintings are dated between 1300 and 1325 and were rediscovered during extensive restoration work in 1953. The church space is dominated by the colors of the medieval altarpiece, the pulpit from 1629 and the lime paintings. They stand in contrast to the plain nave with its white-painted, unadorned walls.guidebook-sweden.com/de/reisefuehrer/reiseziel/farhults-kyrka-mittelalterliche-kirche-in-farhult-bei-jonstorp
