Immanuel Church (Swedish: Immanuelskyrkan) is church located in the city centre of Stockholm, Sweden.[1] The church was designed by Sture Frölén and built in 1974 on a lot that used to house a tram depot, at the intersection of Birger Jarlsgatan and Kungstensgatan.[2] [3]

The entire block, containing offices and a hotel, was built in the years 1970–1974 on behalf of the church. The church has been considered a fine example of 1970s modernist architecture and is of great historical value, according to the Stockholm City Museum.[4]
