Church completes two-day journey across Swedish city | BBC News


An entire church has completed its journey across a city in Sweden’s far north.

The vast red timber structure in Kiruna has been moved 5km (3 miles) along a road, after its old city centre home was at risk from ground fissures after more than a century of iron ore mining.

The 113-year-old church was hoisted onto giant trailer, and moved at a maximum speed of 500m an hour.
