Thanks!

I'll put next request in the right forum next time!

These 5 churches were added to the database, however churches with a spire height under 50 meters aren't really in our interest. Such requests will not always carried out.

[Anders Franzén]

Ok, that's good to know.

When I posted this I only requested churches with spires higher than other Swedish churches already added.
