Ground Fortress in Skredsvik Church to Klara Bratt 5-12-1959. The church of Skredsvik is erected in 1855 in a place just south of the old cemetery. The inauguration took place in 1856. The church is erected in stone, partly drawn from a former church (with medieval dating) in Skredsvik The high square tower in the west is provided with a saddle roof, which carries up a small, cork-radiated spire. Among the inventories, the baptismal find of the 1200s is mainly noticeable. On its foot, a dragon with the gap is visible over a lying knight (?). The coup is divided into 14 arcade fields enclosing, among other things, a martyr scene. The Altar Plate of 1684 depicts “Christ on the Cross” and down to “The Institution of the Communion.” Most likely, the altarpiece is a gift from Governor-General Rutger von Ascheberg and his wife, both arms of which are depicted on the right and left sides of the altarpiece. The pulpit dates from 1855. In the tower hangs two bells, the larger one from 1737, the smaller one from 1620. Source: “Our Churches p. 502.” ISBN 91-971561-08.
