I have been to a number of funerals at Skogskyrkogården and always reflected on the dignity of the place before this sadness it holds on these occasions ? how well the landscape and buildings harmonize with the place and the feelings that can be awakened after a funeral act.0But Skogskyrkogården works on more levels than that; It not only harmonizes, it also gives something more to the visitor. A gentle walk around the graves, among the multitudinal pines and the light that siphers between their branches and then continue to Almhöjden with its sense of space and hope ? nourishes the soul." (Peter Eriksson).
