Gørslev church - Køge
Zealand, DenmarkAbout this experience
Gørslev Church is a late Romanesque church built in large medieval bricks, probably in the 13th century. The nave and the choir have been preserved from the original church. As usual in this region, the tower and the porch are later Gothic additions.
Around year 1500 the church was extended with a solid tower and a more fragile porch, it was also during the Gothic period that the vault above the nave and the choir were added. On the outside of the church, you will especially notice that the old nave is supported by sturdy buttresses on both sides. The buttresses date from the mid 19th century.
