Flodafors

In 1885–1888, the church was rebuilt into three-edged neo-Gothic brick basilica under the direction of architect Adolf Kjellström (1834-1932).

It has a borderline humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb) with sizeable maritime influence, resulting in mild winter averages for its latitude.

Floda is still less influenced by the Baltic Sea than areas to its south such as Nyköping and Oxelösund, resulting in harsher winter frosts and larger summer diurnal temperature variation than the coastal parts of the county.

Due to Flodafors being distinctly influenced by being in the interior, it has some of the warmest average afternoon summer temperatures in all of Scandinavia.

In 2007, the Social Democrats and the Left Party in Katrineholm Municipality decided to shut down the elementary school in Flodafors.
