Växjö Domkyrka, the cathedral in Växjö is the main church of the Diocese of Växjö and is located on the edge of the modern city center of Växjö. The present ground plan of the church with its striking double tower spire dates from the 15th century, but some fragments are already from the 12th century.
The greatest attention is attracted by the altarpiece, created in 2002 by the famous glass artist Bertil Vallien. Following the example of medieval triptychs it consists of a body with two movable wing parts – in this case made of glass. The three parts representing the earth, the underworld and the sky, the center is being formed by the suffering Christ on the cross.
