The town of Kristianopel first church was built at the city foundation in 1600 and replaced the St. Peter's church in Avaskär (see Avaskär's chapel). By midsummer 1611 the church was completely destroyed by the Swedish Crown Prince Gustav II Adolf's army.

A new church was needed and in 1618 the construction of a new church began, with the support of the Danish King. The construction was led by Olluff Madsen. The building was retrieved limestone and granite from Oland and bricks from Nättraby. The church was opened in 1624, although it was not yet fully completed, and was given the name of the Holy Trinity Church.

Kristianopel reminiscents of times of strife and war. Everywhere one sees traces of the time when the border between Denmark and Sweden joined in these parts. The kilometer-long city wall with its bastions protected the inhabitants, but above all it testifies of a heavily fortified border between the countries. The city was founded by the Danish King Christian IV in the early 1600s and is considered to be Scandinavia's first Renaissance city. The currently idyllic Kristianopel has an exciting and sometimes very violent history to discover and learn more about.

Street life, good food and hospitality. But also peace, quiet and time for the soul. A short film in Swedish from beautiful Kristianopel.
