- A beautiful church
Churches & Cathedrals

The church is rich decorated at the altar with golden figures. The churchroom is realy nice inside with the altar in one end and the organ in the other. In the small room at the entrance there is a mosaicwindow made in strong vibrant colours. Fantastic to the white walls when the sun shines through. See more..
4.0 Sct. Albani Church (38 reviews)
- Under reconstruction
Churches & Cathedrals

This church is currently under reconstruction so it doesn't look as good from the outside. We were lucky enough to see it inside and it was very nice. Unlike most Danish churches this one is a Roman Catholic church. See more..
4.0 Aeroskobing Kirke (35 reviews)
- Beautiful Building
Churches & Cathedrals

Happened to pass by here one day and found the doors to be open. So my wife and I wandered in and were immediately taken aback as to how beautiful this church building is. The interior of the church is well maintained, whilst we were in we observed a woman clambering all over the altar, taking measurements of the paintings. The gardens outside, however, are well maintained and make for a relaxing walk around the exterior of the building to absorb how beautiful this place really is. See more..
4.0 Faaborg Kirke Helligaandskirken (34 reviews)
- Nice church
Churches & Cathedrals

5.0 The Nightwatch of Aeroeskoebing (30 reviews)
- Real History of Æro from a local
Spent < 1 hour Historic Sites • Points of Interest & Landmarks • Architectural Buildings • Piers & Boardwalks • Churches & Cathedrals

Every night you can follow the NIGHT WATCH through the old town. On SUNDAYS the tours are conducted in English - start from the old Town Square at 8 PM. Check the sign for exact time. The tour takes about 1 hour. It is a good idea to list list for the English Tours by e-mail or text message - if no listing is received the tour in English will not take place. See more..
4.0 Bogense Kirke (23 reviews)
- Beautiful Tranquil Church
Churches & Cathedrals

Sat in the churchyard for a while then had a look inside the church. Like many churches I've visited in Denmark, it has a ship hanging from the ceiling - two in fact in this church. It's not something we see in the UK but apparently it's a "votive ship", often made and given as a gift to the church by local seamen and ship builders. The font was rough-hewn stone which contrasted dramatically with the opulence if the altar and the pulpit. The church sure at the brow of a hill at the end of the main street. Pop in if you're in Bogense - it's worth it. See more..
4.0 Kerteminde Kirke - Skt. Laurentius Kirke (15 reviews)
- typical old Danish church
Churches & Cathedrals

If you want a bit of peace and serenity visit this little church - it has a feel good factor and you can simply sit and take it all in- try it. See more..
4.5 Church of Our Lady (13 reviews)
- Vi havde en god oplevelse under vort besøg.
Churches & Cathedrals

En kæmpe oplevelse at besøge denne kirke . Vi var heldige at få samtale med kordegnen, der var midt i forberedelse til kirkekoncert i aften i kirken. Kordegnen fortalte os om drengekoret og det arbejde, der foregår. Også om koret med drenge og mænd i flere aldre, ligesom vi kender fra andre steder. Vi kiggede os rundt i den lyse senromanske langkirke fra 1253 på byens højeste punkt indenfor voldene ved torvet. Klokkespillet på nu 30 klokker spiller automatisk dagligt 4 salmer mellem 8-22.00.
Kirken ligner en Dome/Domkirke og er lys og også prangende på en positiv måde. Kordegnen var både engageret og stolt af sin bys kirke, og vi siger tak for samtalen. See more..

4.5 Thuro Kirke (11 reviews)
- A unique landmark in a fairy tale nature with a thought provoking priests
Churches & Cathedrals

The priest Thomas Østergaard Åhllmann is a rare priest, who through his natural empathy and charisma is achieving a small revolution in activating Lutheran beliefs in a normal passive Danish religious environment. He is very popular in his small island constituency due to his great church ambience, brilliant voice and always thought provoking mixture of world events related to the holy scripts in his mass, both among children and adults and attracts a full church for his weekly mass on Sunday's at 1000. The church location is stunning, the architecture is perfectly and typically minimalist and beautiful, while the church yard surrounding the church is a true fairy tale of gravestone texts and flora. As a Dane abroad, to me this is a regular home coming pilgrim destination. See more..

4.0 Ommel Kirke (4 reviews)
- Eine wunderschöne Deckenkonstruktion!
Churches & Cathedrals

Ærø hat bei gerade mal 90 qkm und rund 6.100 Einwohnern immerhin 7 Kirchen zu bieten. Die Kirche in Ommel ist nicht wie die anderen von 08:00-16:00 geöffnet. Wir sind auf gut Glück vorbeigefahren und sie war offen. Sie ist etwas ab vom Schuss und auch die Jüngste der 7 Kirchen (Am 06. Mai 1894 eingeweiht). Wer die Kirche betritt wird von einer bemerkenswerten Deckenkonstruktion empfangen. Auch hier hängen (wie in den anderen Kirchen) Schiffe von der Decke herab. Eine Einheimische erklärte uns, dass wohl die Kapitäne der Schiffe diese Modelle bauen ließen und die Modelle dann dort aufgehangen wurden um das Schiff vor Schaden zu bewahren. Ob das stimmt, konnte ich noch nicht herausfinden. See more..

- Lille landsbykirke med plads til alle
Religious Sites • Churches & Cathedrals

Denne lille kirke er placeret på en bakke, og har en utrolig smuk beliggenhed. Selv hvis man ikke vil ind og se kirken, anbefales det at man tager sin frokost med, og sætter sig på bænken udenfor og nyder den vidunderlige udsigt ud over markerne og havet.
Kirken er meget simpel indvendigt. Men har en rigtig smuk altertavle.
Hele personalet er meget venligt og imødekommende, både præster, kirketjenere, gravere, organister og kirkesangere. Og der er en meget hyggelig atmosfære omkring kirken. En gudstjeneste der, kan anbefales.

Graveren ved også rigtig meget om kirken og dens historie, og vil være en god guide, både til kirken og kirkegården. Og kan en masse historier om sognet, generelt.

For yderligere information, er der lavet et jubilæumsskrift om kirken, som man kan få derinde. See more..

5.0 Rynkeby Kirke (1 review)
- Flotte Kalkmalerier
Churches & Cathedrals

Rynkeby Kirke er en smuk middelalderlig kirke, omkring 800 år gammel. Det specielle er imidlertid nordkapellet fra 1560'erne, hvor hvælvingerne er prydet med engle, som spiller på instrumenter. 31 musicerende engle på 17 instrumenttyper. Instrumenterne er korrekte, og englene holder korrekt på dem, meget spændende for musikinteresserede. Sid ned i kapellet og læg hovedet tilbage og nyd dette meget usædvanlige skue. See more..

- Ligger i lille landsby på Fyn med ca 300 indbyggere.
Spent < 1 hour Churches & Cathedrals

Vi besøgte kirken en hverdag i oktober. Ligger i udkanten af en landsby på en stor grusbanke. Har ligget her i 800 år og var i Middelalderen viet Skt. Laurentius.
Kirken blev udvidet 1872 med sideskubet mid bord og senere i 1937 blev kapellet bygget. See more..
4.0 Skamby Kirke (1 review)
- Super fodspor af Trolden Finn i Skamby Kirke
Churches & Cathedrals

I Skamby findes en mystisk sten nederst i muren af Skamby kirke. Her ses et fodmærke. Folketroen fortæller om Trolden Finn, som med stenkast fra sin gravhøj om natten væltede, hvad der blev bygget om dagen. En klog kone bød bygmesteren opføre kirken som et kors. Så havde trolden ikke længere magt til at ødelægge byggeriet. Men den frustrerede trold mødte op og sparkede til kirken - som han dog ikke kunne vælte. Guds kraft var for stor. Herefter pakkede han sine sager og er aldrig set siden. Måske er det befolkningens indre kamp mellem trosretninger, vi her ser udtrykt i et folkesagn? See more..

4.0 Gamtofte Kirke (1 review)
- Gammel kirke med nye glasmalerier af Peter Brandes
Churches & Cathedrals
Udefra er kirke ikke overmåde harmonisk, men den er relativt stor af en landsbykirke og den er gravkirke for Cederfelt de Simonsen-familien på herregården Brahesborg, der ligger tæt på kirken. Et kapel med smukke kister + mange plænebegravelser vidner om dette. I morværket er ganske mange gamle granitfigurer. Inden for dominerer Peter Brandes' helt nye og moderne glasmalerier og de giver de forskellige dele af kirke hver sin farve.
Altertavlen og prædikestolen er ligesom en række stolestader i koret med mange renæssancetræk, så de stammer nok fra denne tid. På nord væggen et stort krucifiks fra gotisk tid. Kirken er meget velholdt og farverne er smukt sat sammen. See more..
