Sweden Moves Historic 113-Year-Old Kiruna Church to New Location for Iron Ore Mine Expansion | APT

Sweden’s famous Kiruna Church, a 113-year-old red-painted wooden landmark weighing over 600 tons, has been carefully relocated to a new home. The move, part of a 30-year project to shift the entire city of Kiruna due to the expansion of the world’s largest underground iron ore mine, has drawn global attention. The historic church is one of Sweden’s most beautiful wooden structures, now making its way 5 km to a brand-new city centre. #Sweden #Kiruna #KirunaChurch #ChurchRelocation #HistoricMove #IronOre #MineExpansion #SwedishHistory
