Feskekörka in Gothenburg, Sweden, is a market hall designed by city architect Victor von Gegerfelt and completed in 1874. Constructed in brick and limestone in the national Romantic style, the building earned its name—meaning "fish church"—from its striking resemblance to a neo-Gothic church, a visual pun that made it an instantly recognizable landmark. Originally housing an indoor fish market alongside a seafood restaurant, Feskekörka became an institution in the city and enduring tourist attraction, representing one of Gothenburg's oldest trades. Following renovations that began in 2021, the listed building complex now operates as a restaurant venue, continuing its long association with Gothenburg's maritime heritage.
