The year 1788 in architecture involved some significant events.
Landskrona is a town in Scania, Sweden. Located on the shores of the Öresund, it occupies a natural port, which has lent the town at first military and subsequent commercial significance. Ferries operate from Landskrona to the island of Ven, and for many years there was also a connection to Copenhagen. Landskrona is part of the Øresund region.
Baron Carl Hårleman was a Swedish architect.
Maltesholm Castle is a large manor house located at Sönnarslöv in Kristianstad Municipality in Scania, Sweden.
Landskrona Citadel is situated in Landskrona, Scania, southern Sweden. Much of the original work is intact. Examples remain of all major parts of the fortification, which is uncommon in such an accessible area. The moat around the central fortification is intact, as are the north-west and north-east parts of the outermost moat, which originally connected to a moat surrounding the city itself. Centermost, the citadel sits on an island surrounded by its own moat. North of the fort, between the second, third and fourth moat is Sweden's oldest allotment-garden. Several of its garden houses are attractions in themselves. Also the fortress castle itself hides both history as such as well as historical horrors, like the 16th Century dungeon in the old western tower, into which the unlucky prisoners were thrown down through a hatch. If surviving the 4-5 meter fall, there then was neither any daylight or any way out. Also the eastern tower has in later centuries served as a prison for those serving life sentences. Around 1900 until 1940 a part of the fortress served as a forced labour institution for vagrant women
Börringe Priory was a medieval Benedictine priory founded in 1150 at Svedala in Scania, Sweden. Secularized in 1536, the site was developed as a home for the Brahe family. The present large building, known as Börringeklosters slott, was built here in 1763.
The Church of Saint Clare or Klara Church is a church in central Stockholm. Since 1989, the Swedish Evangelical Mission is responsible for its activities.
Saint James's Church is a church in central Stockholm, Sweden, dedicated to apostle Saint James the Greater, patron saint of travellers. It is often mistakenly called St Jacob's. The confusion arises because Swedish, like many other languages, uses the same name for both James and Jacob.
The Saint Lawrence Church is located at Falkenberg in Halland County, Sweden. The medieval era church is situated across from Laurentii Park in the centre of old town Falkenberg.
Stenkyrka Church is a medieval church in Stenkyrka on the Swedish island of Gotland. Although the current church dates from the 13th century, it was probably preceded by one of the earliest churches on Gotland at this site. Stenkyrka Church is dominated by its large tower and its interior is decorated with medieval murals. It belongs to the Church of Sweden and lies in the Diocese of Visby.
Stånga Church is a medieval church in Stånga on the Swedish island of Gotland. The site of the church has probably been considered sacred since before the Christianization of Scandinavia.
As a building Johannes Babtistæ Kirke is a former church in Landskrona, Scania, Sweden. Today it only offers outdoor services, but between around 1430 and 1753 it was the second largest church in Scania. The Church was demolished on orders of the Swedish military commendant in the town. This was due to a fear that a potential enemy could put a cannon at the top of the church tower, and then open fire on the nearby fortress Landskrona Citadel.
Kalix Church is a medieval Lutheran church in Kalix in Norrbotten County, Sweden. It belongs to the Diocese of Luleå. The church is the northernmost medieval church of Sweden.
Sireköpinge Church is a medieval Lutheran church east of Landskrona in the province of Scania, Sweden. It belongs to the Diocese of Lund.
Skepplanda Church is a church in Nödinge-Nol, Västergötland, Sweden. It belongs to Skepplanda-Hålanda parish in the Diocese of Gothenburg. The present church building was begun in 1698 and was completed in 1705, partly built on the walls of the original church from the Middle Ages. The medieval church was largely destroyed by two storms in 1635 and 1674. The ceiling paintings, dating from 1770, were painted by Johan Burman. A church tower in the west was built 1753 and a porch to the south was added in 1756. The tower was destroyed in 1863 but rebuilt the following year. The baptismal font dates from the 13th century. The interior style is late baroque; the pulpit, altarpiece and baptismal font are the same age as the church's reconstruction.
Föra Church is a Lutheran church on the Swedish island of Öland, in the Baltic Sea. It belongs to the Diocese of Växjö. Dating from the Middle Ages, it was heavily reconstructed during the 19th century.
Asmundtorp Church is a church in Asmundtorp, Landskrona Municipality, Skåne, Sweden. The current neo-Gothic church was built in 1895–1897 and replaced a medieval church on the same site. Designed by architect Gustaf Hermansson, it is one of the most accomplished examples of 19th-century church architecture in Skåne. It contains a medieval bronze baptismal font of northern German origin, the only one of its kind in the province. The church belongs to the Church of Sweden and is in the Diocese of Lund.
Arrie Church is a church in Arrie, Vellinge Municipality, in the Swedish province Skåne (Scania). A medieval church on the same spot was demolished in 1899 and the currently visible church inaugurated in 1890. It is a Neo-Gothic church, designed by architect Salomon Sörensen. Arrie Church houses a 15th-century wooden sculpture probably made in the Low Countries.
Landskrona Town Hall is a town hall located in Landskrona. The town hall was inaugurated in the year 1884 after construction had started in 1882. The historical building has been designed by the Danish architect Ove Pedersen and is primarily used for Landskrona municipal council meetings.
