High up on Stigberget, Masthuggskyrkan is one of Gothenburg’s most recognisable landmarks and one of the city’s best viewpoints. From here, you can take in the harbour entrance, the river, the rooftops and the western parts of the city.
The church was designed by architect Sigfrid Ericson and was completed in 1914. With its elevated position, striking silhouette and national romantic architecture, Masthuggskyrkan has become a clear symbol of Gothenburg’s skyline.
A visit is just as rewarding for those interested in architecture as for anyone looking for a great view over Gothenburg. Combine it with a walk to Gathenhielmska culture reserve, which is just a short distance away.
