OSCAR'S CHURCH

Stockholm - Sverige

  • ARCHITECT / DESIGNER: Gustaf Hermansson
  • LIGHTING DESIGNER: Scan Interlight AB

Oscar’s Church is one of the most important churches in Stockholm. Designed by architect Gustaf Hermansson, it was consecrated in 1903. It was King Oscar II himself, from whom the church takes its name, who laid the foundation stone in 1897. The church has three naves, a distinctive 80-meter-high tower in the southwestern part of the building and can accommodate up to 1.200 people. The exterior, in Neo-Gothic style, has remained substantially unchanged since its inauguration.

To enhance this important heritage, it was decided to use an architectural light that required a detailed lighting project. The large external façade, the vertical surfaces of the tower and the various architectural elements are illuminated with professional floodlights from the TYK+ series. For an additional level of detail, two different sizes of fixtures were chosen: TYK+ 20, installed on poles in front of the external walls of the tower that highlight the finish of the materials, and TYK+ 10 for accent lighting on significant architectural elements.

Thus illuminated, thanks to a carefully calibrated light, the building stands out at night in the panorama of the neighborhood where Strandvägen and Narvavägen meet, two of the main avenues of the city, which flank several residential buildings near the Swedish History Museum.

The greatest attraction of Oscar Church are the stained glass windows made during the renovation of the church in the 1920s. A total of 33 windows were created by Norwegian artist Emanuel Vigeland and constitute the most important set of stained glass windows in Sweden, technically and artistically inspired by the medieval art of the glass windows of Italian and French cathedrals.
