Vomb Church

The church dates from the middle of the 13th century. The first church consisted of a nave, chancel and apse. The vaults were built in the 15th century, replacing an earlier wooden ceiling. The church was heavily altered in 1870–1871, when architect Helgo Zettervall redesigned it in a Romanesque Revival style, adding the presently visible tower, transepts, new windows and a new apse. In 1986, remains of medieval murals were uncovered underneath layers of whitewash in the nave. They depict the Passion of Christ and the fall of man. Older, even more fragmentary remains of murals have also been discovered on the walls of the nave.^[1][2]
