Karlstad Cathedral is a cathedral in Karlstad, Sweden. The church is located in the middle of Karlstad on Lagberget on Tingvalla island. It belongs to Karlstad Cathedral Parish of the Diocese of Karlstad of the Church of Sweden.
There has been a church on the site since the 1300s. That church was burned down together with virtually the entire city in 1616.
Subsequently, rebuilt, Karlstad became a cathedral in 1647 when Queen Christina established the Diocese of Karlstad. That church also burned down in 1719. A new church was erected in 1723–1730 at Lagberget on Tingvalla Island, under the direction of Superintendent Johannes Steuchius who later became Archbishop. The church is built in a Baroque style and was inaugurated on 13 July 1730 .
