State & history

Vilket år skildes Svenska kyrkan från staten och upphörde att vara statskyrka?

Translation: In which year was the Church of Sweden separated from the state and ceased to be the state church?

  • A 1809
  • B 1951
  • ✓ 2000 Your answer
  • D 2015

Correct!

Från 1 januari 2000 är Svenska kyrkan ett trossamfund bland andra och inte längre statskyrka. Staten är därmed religiöst neutral, men kyrkan har fortfarande en särskild lag.

From 1 January 2000 the Church of Sweden is one religious community among others and no longer the state church. The state is thus religiously neutral, although the church still has its own special law.
