Folke Johansson Ängel
Folke Johansson Ängel (Latin: Fulco Angelus) (died 1277) was Archbishop of Uppsala, Sweden (1267–1277), although he was not ordained by the Pope until 1274. He was a member of the Ängel family, which wielded considerable influence in 13th century Sweden.
Archbishop Ängel is best known for commissioning the moving of the episcopal see from its location in what is now known as Old Uppsala to its present location in Uppsala proper.
Archbishop Ängel is buried in Uppsala Cathedral, which started to be constructed in 1272, as a part of the project of the episcopal see.
