Church interior from Norra Ljunga

The church in Norra (Northern) Ljunga, Småland, Sweden. This church dates to the 12th century. The Gothic vaults are obviously a later addition, probably from a couple or so centuries later - not too uncommon, at least in the Nordic countries, when you wanted to turn your old church into something more fashionable. You can see that the vaults and arches aren't completely... comfortable in relation to the older architecture. And the pulpit is an even later, post-Reformation, addition to the church.
