Queen Astrid Church

A committee has been formed for the construction of a memorial church to Queen Astrid at Boitsfort-Brussels. In style and ornamentation this church will be completely Swedish as a reminder of -the Queen's native country.
In it a chapel will be dedicated to St. Bridget, a Swedish Princess, and will revive the cult of this saint, formerly popular in Belgium.
