Skederid Church
Skederid Church ((スウェーデン語:Skederids kyrka)) is a medieval, former Catholic church that today belongs to the Lutheran Archdiocese of Uppsala. It lies just outside Norrtälje in Stockholm County, Sweden. It was built by Birger Persson, father of Saint Bridget of Sweden, and it is probably the church where she was baptised.
==History==
The oldest parts of Skederid Church date from the end of the 13th century, and was built by lawspeaker Birger Persson, a man closely connected to King Birger of Sweden and the father of Saint Bridget of Sweden. The area surrounding the church is rich in cultural heritage, having been the site of continuous population since at least the bronze age. A runestone is immured in the church.〔 The church was originally built as a private church belonging to Birger Persson's farmstead. The original church was very small, the size of the choir of the presently visible building, but still consciously built, displaying influences from French church building traditions.〔 The church was ravaged by fire some time during the 14th century, and the original wooden ceiling destroyed.
The young Saint Bridget had some of her earliest religious visions here.〔 After she was proclaimed a saint in 1391, the church became a pilgrimage site.〔 In connection with this, the church was expanded and rebuilt. By the mid-15th century it acquired the size and form it still largely has.〔
In 1748, the former choir was turned into a vestry, and in 1880 the old vestry was demolished.〔 The medieval gate entrance to the cemetery was transformed into a bell tower in 1775.〔 A memorial stone dedicated to Saint Bridget was erected outside the church in 1930.〔
