Rejmyre Church on October 30, 2008

Rejmyre Church (Swedish: Rejmyre kyrka) is a lumber church, located in Rejmyre, Sweden, exactly east of Reijmyre glassworks and about 27 km north of Finspång.

History

When they started building Reijmyre glassworks in 1810, the population was extended and in 1837 they wanted to build a chapel. The next year a rectangular lumber building was built exactly east of the glassworks.

During renovations the interior of the church will be changed. In 1952 the pulpit above the altar was replaced by an ambon which was placed in the left-hand side of the choir. Above the altar they put the present oil picture.
