A trip to Skogskyrkogården (The Woodland Cemetery),
a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Stockholm..

My shutter happy buddy..

When Skogskyrkogården was founded at the beginning of the 1900s, the aim was to create something original - a cemetery blending nature and architecture into a seamless whole.. Today, Skogskyrkogården is considered one of the most important creations of modern architecture - a cemetery that has greatly influenced cemetery design throughout the world..
.
The design of Skogskyrkogården centres on the Nordic woodland experience, the work of Gunnar Asplund and Sigurd Lewerentz..
