Österhaninge Church

The Leaning Church Tower

The leaning church tower in Österhaninge. The old church is sometimes called Sankta Gertruds kyrka. It is ca 800 years old. The tower is from around 1510. When the builder realised that the tower was leaning, legend says he killed himself.

Nope. The top photo was taken the day I posted it. Snow is long gone now. But it was a long and cold and snowy winter.
