Kalmar Cathedral

The new city of Kalmar was built on Kvarnholmen island in the mid-17th century. The transfer from the old town was largely completed by 1658. The new, fortified town was planned along Renaissance ideals. Accordingly, the church and town hall were constructed across from one another in the old town square . The material in the masonry consists of limestone from Gotland. The vaults and portals and window coverings are made of brick. The roof was lined with copper plate. The cathedral was built without a dome and with high window openings.
