Katarina Church, known as Katarina kyrka in Swedish, is a prominent Lutheran church located in the Södermalm district of Stockholm, Sweden. Originally built in the 1690s, the church is named after Princess Katarina, the daughter of King Charles XI. The structure has faced several challenges over the centuries, including devastating fires in 1723 and 1990, but it has been meticulously restored each time. The church features a striking Baroque architectural style and is particularly noted for its tall, elegant spire.
