Glemminge kyrka

Ystad Municipality · Skåne County

Glemminge kyrka was designed by the architect Peter Boisen from Ystad in brick in a Gothic-imitating style. The new church was consecrated in 1900 and replaced a 12th-century church. Until 2020 the church had a tall spire, but it was in danger of collapsing. A new, lower roof, designed by the architect Erika Martin, was completed in 2023 and gave the church a completely new appearance.
