About Uppsala Cathedral
Uppsala Cathedral, in Swedish Uppsala domkyrka, lies between the river Fyris and the University Hall of Uppsala University, at the heart of Uppsala, Sweden. It belongs to the Church of Sweden, in the Evangelical-Lutheran tradition, and the Archbishop of Uppsala, primate of Sweden, has it as his seat. Its origins lie in the late 13th century, and at 118.7 meters (389 ft) no other church in the Nordic countries is taller.
King Eric IX, who became the nation's patron saint, is buried there, and it was where new Kings of Sweden were traditionally crowned. Several chapels were turned into tombs for Swedish monarchs, among them Gustav Vasa and John III, and Carl Linnaeus, Olaus Rudbeck and Emanuel Swedenborg are also buried in the cathedral. French architects including Étienne de Bonneuil designed it in the French Gothic style, with a cross-shaped plan where the nave meets the transept.
Most of the building went up between 1272 and 1420, the west end was not finished until the mid-15th century, and twin towers followed shortly afterwards. After a fire in 1702, Carl Hårleman gave the high spires low helms in 1735. Helgo Zettervall undertook comprehensive restoration between 1885 and 1893, adding pointed French spires to the towers and making the cathedral as high as it was long. Brick is the principal material, and Gotland limestone was used for the pillars and many details.
How it prints
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
| Print size | Landmark height | Scale |
|---|---|---|
| 160 mm default | 32 mm | 1:3,750 |
| 200 mm | 40 mm | 1:3,000 |
| 256 mm | 51 mm | 1:2,344 |

- Twin spires with tiny crosses
- Two tall spires at the west end each end in a small cross, with a third slender spire over the crossing. Print slowly with good cooling; Print friendly adapts the thinnest tips, and a bigger print size makes them sturdier.
- Buttresses and small conical roofs
- The east end has several small conical roofs and many thin buttresses. Full detail keeps them on a larger print, and 0.12–0.16 mm layers keep them crisp.
- One piece with the ground
- Uppsala Cathedral is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Uppsala Cathedral takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.

Common questions
Is there an Uppsala Cathedral STL I can download?
Mini Skyline builds the file for you in your browser and exports 3MF, which every major slicer opens. If you need an STL, open the 3MF in your slicer and export it from there.
How big can I print it?
Any print size from 40 mm across. Uppsala Cathedral grows with the print: about 32 mm tall on the default 160 mm print. For a model larger than your printer bed, Project Mode splits the area into tiles.
Is it free?
