Mr Monkey visits the Skansen


"It's a nice red church, apart from being poked for snoring"

It was starting to rain when Mr Monkey arrived at the Seglora church, built in Västergötland in 1730 (though the tower wasn't added until the 1780s) and moved to the Skansen in 1916. It's a very popular place for weddings, apparently. Mr Monkey was intrigued by the little fence around the altar, and by the special pole in the porch, which was used to poke anyone who fell asleep during a sermon.
