The bell was donated by Queen Gunilla Bjelke at the end of the 16th centura and was originally a chapel bell. It is still rung twice every day, a reminder of the times when townspeople were warned not to carry unprotected lanterns on the streets at night. Uppsala Cathedral (Swedish: Uppsala domkyrka) is a cathedral located between the Uppsala University Main Building and the River Fyris in the centre of Uppsala, Sweden. A church of the Lutheran Church of Sweden, Uppsala Cathedral is the seat of the Archbishop of Uppsala, the primate of Sweden. The current archbishop is Antje Jackelén[1] and the current bishop is Ragnar Persenius. The cathedral dates to the late 13th century and at a height of 118.7 metres (389 ft), it is the tallest church in the Nordic countries.[2] Originally built under Roman Catholicism, it was used for coronations of Swedish monarchs for a lengthy period following the Protestant Reformation. Several of its chapels were converted to house the tombs of Swedish monarchs, including Gustav Vasa and John III. Carl Linnaeus, Olaus Rudbeck, Emanuel Swedenborg, and several archbishops are also buried here.
