The Diocese of Strängnäs is a part of the Church of Sweden and has its seat in Strängnäs Cathedral in Strängnäs south of Lake Mälaren. The diocese is made up of the two provinces Närke and Södermanland (except for eastern Södermanland which belongs to Stockholm County and the Diocese of Stockholm). The diocese was first a suffragan of the Diocese of Lund which in 1104 was elevated to an archdiocese and became the metropolitan of all of Scandinavia.
