History and description
editThe little church which stands alone in the sand dunes close to the main road was completed in 1894. Designed by Vilhelm Ahlmann in the Neo-Romanesque style, the red-brick building consists of a triangular chancel and a nave. At the west end, there is a small bell tower with a spire. The painting on the altarpiece is a copy of Joakim Skovgaard's Hyrden finder det bortløbne lam (The Shepherd finds the Lost Sheep). The organ from 1972 was designed by Peter Bruhn.[1]
