Gamla kyrkan, the historic church of Östersund, was built in 1846 as a replica of an 18th-century altar painting by Samuel Perman, a wealthy merchant and one of Östersund's early inhabitants. The current church is not the original but a replica that now stands in its place, sparking intrigue about its creation, its purpose, and the story it was intended to conceal.
