Löt Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The first stone church in Löt was built during the first half of the 12th century. The church at this time consisted of a nave and a narrower choir with an apse. During the second half of the 12th century, when the threat from pagan pirates from the Baltics increased, Löt's church, like so many other of the Öland churches, was rebuilt into a defense church. In Löt, a shooting range was first built over the nave. The tower to the west was added around the year 1200. During the first decades of the 13th century, the tower was built with another floor, a total of four. A coat of arms in the south was also added during this century while the sacristy was built in the north in the 14th century. The minutes of the parish meeting from the 17th and 18th centuries contain information about several renovations of the church. The biggest change, however, was made in the late 18th century when the tower was fitted with a lantern. Here the church bells were hung. They had previously hung in a belfry. During the 19th century, the population increased and the church became cramped. In 1840, the builder Peter Isberg began work on the new church. The drawings had been made in 1838 by Nils Isak Löfgren. To keep costs down, the tower and parts of the nave's west wall in the new church building were used. The rest of the medieval church was demolished. The new nave was built outside the grounds of the medieval church and the building was extended to the east. At the far east, the sacristy was built. The new church is dominated both internally and externally by neoclassical stylistic features e.g. the arched windows and the bright, airy church room. Even the medieval tower today has a classicist expression with the lantern, the round arched windows and the entrance to the west.

St. Martin's Cross, Föra, Öland

Highlight • Monument

This place brings you back in time. Take your time to contemplate this cross on your ride on Oland. Here you can find Föra Church, a Lutheran church on the Swedish island of Öland, in the Baltic Sea. It belongs to the Diocese of Växjö. Dating from the Middle Ages, it was heavily reconstructed during the 19th century.

Old, restored fishing village, privately owned houses are kept and restored by a club of owners. Geologically interesting corner: Formations of limestone, alum shale, siltstone and sandstone. For Geocacher here is a so-called Earth cache that explains everything.
Very scenic coastline. Numerous quirky stone clumps on the beach. A lot of nature. The coastline to the north invites every few kilometers for a break.
