Lövånger Church town

Lövånger Church town is one of the older church towns that are preserved. Old maps have been found in church buildings from the middle of the 17th century.

The church villages became quite common after the Protestant church in Sweden gained its power and placed high demands on the church among the people. You would regularly attend church services and holidays. In 1681, "church tours" were introduced, which meant that those who lived within a mile of the church would come every Sunday and within two miles every other Sunday.
