Åre Old Church

Åre gamla kyrka

A medieval stone church dating from the 13th century, one of the oldest buildings in Jämtland County, standing quietly on the shore of Åre Lake.

The Åre Old Church was built in the late 13th century and is one of the best-preserved medieval churches in Jämtland County. Its white stone walls, wooden shingle roof, and freestanding bell tower are simple and elegant, and the interior contains medieval wood carvings and remnants of murals. The church sits on the lakeshore south of the center of Åre and is within walking distance. Concerts are often held here in summer. Admission is free.
