My disappointing experience 0n announces a castle to us and we find ourselves in front of an abandoned castle it would be good to withdraw the announcement to avoid a trip for nothing

Very interesting. Alas it is no longer to visit because on sale. We were lucky to find one of the owners who showed us some rooms.

The first written record of church in Danmark locality date back to the year 1291. Close to the church are several stones with a Christian text and cross inscribed. The oldest parts of the present red-brick church are from the 1300s. In the late 1400s the church was enlarged to the appearance it has today. The church has been modified both internally and externally several times, among other things after the fires in 1699 and 1889. There are lot of well-preserved mural paintings in the walls.
