About this experience

Ålum Kirke is definitely worth a visit. The beautiful ashlar church originates from about year 1200 and has both an interesting history and many beautiful structural details.

In particular, the entrance gate between the existing porch and the nave with tree double granite columns is a magnificent stonecutter work. An intesting, small folder on the church? s history can be purchased in the church? s porch.

The tower and the porch from the end of the 16th century are red-washed, and especially the tower is remarkable with its tortuous gable ends and white filling walls.

At Ålum Kirke, you will have a unique opportunity to experience some fine runic stones of the viking age. Here, no less than 4 different runic stones are placed.
