Farhults kyrka - Farhult, Sweden - This Old Church on Waymarking.com

Farhults church.
The church was built sometime at the end of the 12th century or the beginning of the 13th century.
Probably the arches in the nave and chancel were beaten during the latter part of the 15th century, and then a west tower with
an external, narrow stair tower on the south side. This stair tower was later removed after an internal staircase was inserted.
The current window openings were taken up during a thorough restoration in the 1870s.
The arch ribs have completely lost their medieval character due to restorations, but the two reward stones in
the triumphal arch between nave and cows is restored to its original condition. And in the southern of them are the remains of one
device that may have been the mount for a medieval prim clock.
The southern portal of the nave was also rebuilt in the 19th century and the nave outside was demolished. New entrance remained instead
the west wall of the tower, and in this way you got more seats in the nave. There has also been a smaller entrance through
the south wall of the chancel, which, however, was probably rebuilt as early as the late Middle Ages. This entrance is now marked in the plaster
outside.

- Inside the church, there are seats to accommodate (no info) people.
- The pulpit is made of wood in 1626.
- The baptismal font is from around 1938.
- There are 1 bell in the tower made by Hans Kemmer 1636
- The organ with 14 steams was built in 1916 by Eskil Lundén, Göteborg.
