Do not miss
It was originally part of Maribo Abbey which was founded in the early 15th century. It is located right down to the beautiful Søndersø. The Gothic cathedral is built of red brick as a hall church with a nave flanked by equally high aisles with a common roof. The church was originally built as part of a double monastery - located between a nunnery and a monastery. Back in 1596 when Maribo's old village church burned down, the abbey church became the city's new church and in 1803, the church changed its status to a cathedral. Through the ages the church has been subject to various rebuilds and in the 1890s, the church was restored to its original form, so that today the church stands as a bid for what it may have looked like as a monastery church in the Middle Ages. The cathedral is open for visits all week at 9.00 - 17.00.

Just popped in - got the tour
Excellent place to just pop in. Met a guy working there who ended up giving us a private tour. They don't do tours officially. Some cool features in there. Go check it out. Be sure to check out all corners.
