The architecture is incredible, I can see why they want to preserve it. Per Wikipedia :

Kiruna Church is one of Sweden's largest wooden buildings. The church's design has been significantly influenced by Sami huts and Norwegian stave churches. The building's exterior is neo-Gothic, the interior has national romanticism elements, and the altarpiece is Art Nouveau. Kiruna Church's plan was made up of simple forms in geometry. The building's plan displayed an open and spacious square design, with elevated and symmetrical triangular forms.
