A small whitewashed church with no tower, built in 1759-61. By the initiativ of Hans Ramel. Built as a chapel for Övedskloster. A typical rococo church. The road up to the church is lined with a lime-tree alley. I'm on another excursion, the door to the church is open. Out oozes organ music. At the chancel sit a man and plays. "I try to get rid of the ring rust before a wedding." Good acoustics. The nave is decorated with little angels. An unadorned room. Over the altar is a different reredos, a gilded sun, from the 1757th The organ was built 1806th On one wall is an epitaph in marble for Hans Ramel and his wife. In the church there is a gentry bleachers. In the crypt under rest Hans Ramel and his wife. Down there one do not get.
