Lonely Planet review for Riddarholmskyrkan

With its dramatic iron spire stabbing at the sky, Riddarholmskyrkan (on Riddarholmen) is a Stockholm icon. Built by Franciscan monks in the late 13th century and expanded in the mid-15th century, it has been the final resting place of Swedish monarchs since the burial of the mighty Gustav II Adolf in 1632; his marble sarcophagus lies in the Gustavian chapel.
