The Northern Biskopsgården Church (which in Swedish is called Norra Biskopsgårdens kyrka) is a special building. It is located in the northern part of Biskopsgården. This area is on the island of Hisingen in Gothenburg, Sweden.

History of the Church

The Northern Biskopsgården Church opened its doors in 1970. At first, it was used as a parish home. A parish home is a building where a church community can meet. It is used for activities, classes, and gatherings.

Changes Over Time

The church used to belong to the Lundby Parish. This parish is part of the Church of Sweden. However, in 2004, the building was no longer used by them.

Later, the church was given to new groups. It was transferred to the Gothenburg Ecclesiastical Town Mission. It also became home to the Finnish Parish. This means different communities now use the building for their activities.
