Abstract
In 1979, Söndrum's medieval church in Halland, Sweden (south), was restored. A new porch was erected to the north of the tower, originally built in 1820. On the tower there were traces of an old layer of pink plaster. In the interior new benches were set up, the paintings were cleaned and unpainted parts were limewashed. Above the vault a medieval inscription in Latin indicated that the vault had been built in 1428. -- AATA
