 On ca.three barrels of land around the church was landscaped a churchyard, which was surrounded by a wall of shaped stones towards south and west, a stone dike towards north and east, and planted with coniferous trees along the rest of its northern rim.After the newly buried coffins from the old churchyard which could stand it were moved there the night before, the new churchyard was consecrated November 28, 1872 by Bishop Brammer and the parish's priest Alfred Hjalmar Elmqvist.
