About this cemetery
Förkärla Churchyard (Förkärla kyrkogård) surrounds Förkärla Church in the Ronneby area of Blekinge, Sweden, and belongs to the Church of Sweden's Ronneby parish group. The first church on the present site is dated to the late 1200s or early 1300s by the Church of Sweden, while another source suggests the early 1200s. A wooden bell tower stood in the churchyard, south of the church, in 1665 and until the stone tower was built in 1863-65.
