Mora, Sweden

We traveled to Mora today and visited the church there. The tower is more than 230 ft high and was built in the second half of the seventeenth century, when the church was largely rebuilt following a serious fire. Parts of the original medieval church remain, however. The building can trace its origins back to the twelfth or thirteenth centuries.





We also visited the Zorn Gammelgard and Textile Museum. This is a small sample of the various kinds of needlework on display.
