About this experience

Originally a simple Romanesque limestone church.

The church is from the 1100s, which already in 1250 was changed to the west
with a higher and wider extension that makes the church a distinctive edifice.

Later on a outbuilding from the Gothic period characterizes the church tower as
the latest from the 1669.

At the tower's south side - high up - is a sandstone tablet, inserted in the memory
of the giver of the tower.

In the tower are two old bells. The big one is from in 1665. The small is from
1495 with 14 embedded pilgrim character.

The altarpiece is from 1802 with a rare anachronistic altarpiece, which is a copy
of the Italian painter Domenichino (1581-1641).

The front is of bronzed cast from approx. 1865. pulpit is from the 1613.

The church is open weekdays from 7 to 16. 30.
