Not far from Garnsviken lies Österåker Church. The walls reveal that the oldest stone church was built sometime during the 1100s.
Originally the church had a tower in the west. An extensive rebuilding was carried out in the 1430s. The nave was lengthened to its present extent. Towards the middle of the 1600s the building was so dilapidated that it became necessary to make a thorough rebuilding. The church got its present appearance with this rebuilding, which was begun in 1647. This extensive work was paid for by Mrs Birgitta Kurk of Smedby, widow of the privy councillor Gabriel Oxenstierna. Contributions were also made by Gustav Banér of Tuna farm.
