Grebo kyrka

Åtvidaberg Municipality · Östergötland County

In the Grebo-Värna pastorate a proposal for a new church was raised during the 18th century, since both the Grebo and Värna churches were in poor condition. The decision was to renovate Värna kyrka and build a new church in Grebo. In 1773 the church was completely finished.
