St Paul's Church, S:t Pauli kyrka, stands in Malmö's Rörsjöstaden district. Built in 1882 on a drained former lakebed, it is a round church with turrets and towers. Architect Emil Langlet incorporated ideas of democracy and equality, as well as modern technology, into the building's design. The church belongs to St Johannes parish, along with St Johannes Church and St Matthew's Church.

The church is also a place for parish gatherings and cultural events. On Thursdays, the parish house hosts a book circle, knitting café, conversation and company, a woodworking workshop and a gardening group. The church's programme includes music. The parish also lists activities for children, from a baby café to children's choirs and a craft workshop. Pauli's wardrobe offers clothes, costume jewellery, shoes and toys free of charge.

The church website does not list a general admission charge or visitor opening hours, or say how long a visit takes. For services, concerts and other events, check the calendar in the free Kyrkguiden app. The parish office can be reached at 040-27 91 00.
