The Fish Church – or Feskekôrka –
Is one of the quirky sights you can visit in Gothenburg.
It’s actually a fish market (built in 1874)
That resembles a Gothic Church.
The reclining benches in front of the market
Are an excellent place
On which to rest
And drink in a summer sunset.

The fish market is really interesting, clever architecture. I love the last photo with the pattern of the cobblestones and the pattern of the ripples on the water.

Without your keen eye and trusty camera I would never know about such a place. I wonder what motivated the architects in the 1800s to use a Gothic design for the Fish Market.

Actually, the building wasn’t converted – it was built to be a fish market (but a market that looks like a Gothic church)!
