This simple wooden chapel from 1939 was designed by Ove Leijonhuvud and donated by Swedish industrialist and art patron Helge Axelsson Johnson. Inside one can see a famous altarpiece by artist Axel Sjöberg. A model ship, a so-called votive ship, hangs from the ceiling as a reminder of the influence that ships and boats have always had on the island.
