Here
are buried amongst others the members of the Sture family who were
murdered by Erik XIV at Uppsala Castle in 1567.
The memorial painting on the west wall tells about them. (The
clothes, which they wore when they were murdered, are preserved in
the Cathedral Treasury.)
All
sides chapels in the church were originally used as small chapels of
worship, and named after different saints.
The reredos, made in Brussels around 1520, was purchased from Skånela
church in the 1900s, and depicts the legend of Anna and Joakim, the
parents of the Virgin Mary.
The
Chapel is today used for baptism and the morning Eucharist.
