St. Peter’s Church, one of the oldest buildings in Malmö, dates back to the 14th century and stands as a testament to the city’s rich history. Located in the heart of Malmö, the church is distinguished by its flying buttresses, which add a distinctive architectural flair. Inside, visitors can admire late medieval frescoes and a 17th-century altarpiece, one of the largest in the Nordic countries. Although the interior walls were whitewashed during the Reformation, some elaborate fixtures have been preserved, offering a glimpse into the church’s past grandeur.
