About the church

Tacksägelsekyrkan ("the Thanksgiving Church"), sometimes also called Trångsunds kyrka, is a church within the Diocese of Stockholm. It was designed by the architect Sture Frölén and consecrated in 1957 in connection with the expansion of Trångsund into a built-up area. In 1974 it became the parish church of the newly formed Trångsund parish, which had been separated from Huddinge parish. Beside the church there is also a memorial grove and a small burial ground. Tacksägelsekyrkan was the parish church until Mariakyrkan in Skogås was consecrated in 1987, and thereby took over the role as the new parish church.
