Skårby Church

Skårby Church is mentioned in written sources for the first time in 1145.

[2][1] The core of the church, i.e. the nave and choir, is Romanesque in style and dates from the first half of the 12th century, or possibly even earlier.

During the 14th century, vaults were installed in the choir and the church possibly enlarged towards the west.

The church also has some medieval furnishings: two Romanesque baptismal fonts and an altar chalice from the early 16th century, as well as, possibly, the wooden front door.

[2] Incorporated in a wooden gallery of the church, the only known medieval rood screen in Sweden has been discovered.
