A pop singer's final rest

A pop singer's final rest

The Hedvig Eleonora Church in Stockholm houses the graves of two famous Swedish pop stars: Tim Bergling (Avicii) and Lasse Berghagen.

The distinctive octagonal Hedvig Eleonora Church in Stockholm, named for Queen Hedvig Eleonora, has been site to many significant events in more recent times, including weddings and funerals.

In 2018, Tim Bergling, known to fans as Avicii, passed away, leaving an indelible impact on the dance music scene. A year later, Lasse Berghagen passed away. Both men are interred in Hedvig Eleonora Church, their final resting place a poignant reminder of the connection between art and death.
