Kyrkogården vid Vårfrukyrkan, Enköping, Uppland 2004

Dellbeck, Johan

The picture has been taken in connection with cultural historical documentation of the Church of Spring Wife in Enköping, Uppland 2004. The cemetery is surrounded by a cold-walled terrace wall in graystone. It has a tree wreath and there are many large deciduous trees inside the cemetery. The greatest extent it has to the north. The church is located approximately in the middle of the southern half of the cemetery, which ends steeply down towards Kyrkogatan. From Kyrkogatan to the south, a wide staircase goes up towards the cemetery and enters through a three-part entrance with iron gates in the middle of which is a bricked and trimmed portal in a neo-baroque. The Entrance Party is designed by the architect Fredrik Falkenberg and built in 1900. The cemetery can also be reached from the rest of the weather streaks. The cemetery is unusual in that it is largely characterised by stone rammed graves. Gravestments in stone held in the different styles of the early 19th century dominate. Striking is the great feature of lying horizontal burial yards in a tight neo-classicism from around 1910-1940. The cemetery aisles are graveled, but the church appears almost some paved surfaces. The cemetery is expanded to the north in the 1900s. In the urn grove on the new part is a metal sculpture by Eric Stålen.
