Very beautiful church

Impotent cathedral surrounded by a quiet delightful town. Inside there is an organ that envelops you with its incredible sound.

Impressive cathedral for such a small town! With the bikes on tour, the large cathedral dominates the landscape from afar! Small coffees and restaurants around the cathedral, also very nice in the area! The cathedral is very beautiful from the inside, especially the windows, which were most likely not destroyed by the war, so true to detail and beautiful, especially in the sunlight, were lucky impressive! Taking a break outside in the shade kestrels also inhabit the top of the tower and circled around! Greetings from Moers

As is so often the case: as impressive as it is from the outside, it is so simple on the inside. The cherry windows are beautiful.

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.
