Grundtvigskirken

Now that I have a bike, David and I have been making the most of the weekends and our ability to go anywhere (within reason). Our first trip was to Grundtvigskirken - a seriously beautiful church, and a fantastic example of 20th century church architecture. It's a merge of styles - typical Danish village churches, and Gothic architecture.


I love the symmetry of the place, it's all very well planed, surrounded by buildings that mirror each other - making it a delight to go to.

The inside is totally overwhelming and really forces you to respect it - hushed voices, private moments of contemplation and all that other ecclesiastical jazz.
