A 113-year-old wooden church in Sweden’s far north has been successfully relocated to a new site after a two-day journey across the city of Kiruna, according to BBC reporting. The move was carried out to protect the landmark from ground subsidence caused by more than a century of iron ore mining.

But this Lutheran church some 200 kilometers (120 miles) above the Arctic Circle seeks to incorporate the region's minority languages — Northern Sami, Finnish and Meänkieli – into worship services, carrying on an inclusive ethos that has been a cornerstone of the historic wooden church since its founding in 1912.
