| The Church of the Ascension in Höganäs |
Of all the buildings in Höganäs, a coastal town in southwestern Sweden, the church from 1934 is easily the most impressive. It was designed by the architect Ivar Tengbom (1878 - 1968), one of the best known representatives of the neo-classical - and later also functionalist - style in Sweden.
Internationally Tengbom is perhaps most well-known as the architect of the Stockholm Concert Hall (1923 - 1926), the home of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and the venue for the annual Nobel Prize ceremony.
