The Karlsdal Chapel (Swedish : Karlsdals kapell) is a chapel in Karlskoga Municipality in Sweden, located in Karlsdal, 15 km (9 mi) north of Karlskoga. [1]

Contents

In 1736, Karl Luthman, an ironmaster, applied for permission to build a chapel at Karlsdal because the distance to Karlskoga Church was too far. [2] The chapel building was completed in 1842, [1] [2] and served as the church to the Karlsdal Church Parish until 1922 when it merged with the Karlskoga Church Parish.
