John the Baptist Catholic Church

John the Baptist Catholic Church (Johannes Döparens katolska kyrka) is a Catholic church and congregation in Landskrona, Sweden. The church was originally a Methodist church from its inauguration in 1905; but in 1995 the Roman Catholic church in Sweden acquired the church after the Methodist congregation had ceased its activity. The building was renovated to prepare for its reinauguration as a Catholic church. During its time as a Methodist church, the name of the church building was the Betel Church (Betelkyrkan). The inauguration in 1995 was officiated by the bishop Hubertus Brandenburg. In 2006 a major interior renovation took place, leading to the present appearance of the Neo-Gothic church room. Next to the crucifix, the choir has a sculpture of Mary with the baby Jesus on the left and the patron saint of the congregation and Landskrona City, Johannes the Baptist, as a sculpture on the left at the baptismal font.
