Hov Church is located in the village Hov, Båstad, Scania, Sweden and is one church out of three used by the parish of Västra Karup. The current church was built in 1837–1839 after drawings by architect Samuel Enander. It's the third church at the same location. The first church was built during the 11th or 12th century. This was enlarged or rebuilt during the 16th century. Its font is carved in stone and is an artifact from the first church. It's dated to the 13th century. A plate of hamrade brass, was made for the font in Nuremberg, Germany in the 16th century. In the church does also Triumph-Crucifix from the 12th century hang, while the current altarpiece, painted by Fritiof Swensson from Gothenburg, was put up in 1922. It's a good example of how regular Scanian churches were built until the latest decades of the 19th century. White, and build of stone and concrete. Not far from the church, is the coast known as Hovs Hallar , the location where Ingmar Bergman filmed most of the outdoor scenes his perhaps most famous film The Seventh Seal . Also a few scenes from Jan Troell's Flight of the Eagle from 1982 was shot there. Oddly, Max von Sydow stars in both these films.
