The triangular shape of Kyrkan vid Brommaplan pierces the Stockholm sky. A striking image isn’t it?
This isn’t just any church. This is Kyrkan vid Brommaplan. It’s a place steeped in history a testament to faith and architectural ingenuity. Built in 1957 the church stands as a beacon of the Bromma Baptist congregation. Since 2011 it has been part of the Equmeniakyrkan a larger church network.
But look closer. Notice the unique triangular design. Architect Orjan Lunning didn’t choose this shape randomly. The three sides represent the Holy Trinity: Father Son and Holy Spirit. It’s a subtle yet powerful symbol visible from every angle.
And the artistry continues inside. Dominating the church’s back wall is a stylized image of the Good Shepherd. This isn’t just decoration. It’s a visual representation of Jesus’s role as the protector and provider. The artist? Julia Lunning the architect’s mother. She also designed the stained-glass window to the right. It features words from the Beatitudes. These aren’t just words on glass they are a call to action a message of hope and peace.
Even the organ boasts a story. It was crafted by Gronlund and Sons in Gammelstad a testament to meticulous craftsmanship. The church’s left side wall received a vibrant makeover in 2003 thanks to the artistic talents of Birgitta Karnbo.
The Kyrkan vid Brommaplan is more than just bricks and mortar. It is a living testament to faith art and community. A place where history art and spirituality intertwine. It’s a place where you can feel the weight of history and the promise of the future. A truly unique place of worship in the heart of Stockholm. A place you’ll remember long after you leave.
