Rimbertikirche

The Rimbertikirche is a rectangular hall church with a wooden barrel vault ceiling and a square western tower located in Emmelsbüll-Horsbüll. The interior space is defined by the vaulted wood construction, while the tower forms the building's dominant feature when viewed from outside.

The church was built in 1768 to replace a medieval structure from the 13th century. The name was added in 1989 in honor of Bishop Rimbert of Hamburg-Bremen.

The interior preserves a baptismal font, pulpit, and altar from the earlier church, joined by colorful relief carvings representing virtues. These objects link spiritual continuity across multiple generations of worshippers.

The building belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran congregation of Emmelsbüll-Neugalmsbüll and features a Marcussen organ from 1874 with ten registers. As an active place of worship, visitors can enter to view the historic interior and furnishings.

The wooden barrel vault was constructed using ship planks treated with salt water, reflecting this region's connection to the sea. This unusual building technique reused available maritime materials while connecting local craftsmanship with the building's design.
