Sofia Albertina Church (Swedish: Sofia Albertina kyrka) is the main church in Landskrona, Sweden. Belonging to the Landskrona Parish of the Church of Sweden, it was inaugurated in 1788 and fully completed in 1816.[1] It is considered a rare church building, in the respect that it has two towers without being a Bishop's church. The church was originally designed by Carl Hårleman, as perhaps his last greater task. Hårleman died in 1753, the same year as the old church was demolished. Smaller changes to Hårlemans original may have been done.
