Maribo Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Maribo, Denmark
The cathedral features red brick construction with a nave flanked by high aisles under a common roof, following medieval architectural patterns.
Established in 1416 as part of Maribo Abbey, the first Bridgettine monastery in Denmark, receiving cathedral status in 1924 for the Lolland-Falster diocese.
The interior contains the oldest canvas painting in Scandinavia, a Late Renaissance pulpit from 1606, and a Baroque altarpiece from 1641.
Men enter through the south door while women use the north entrance, maintaining a traditional separation practice that continues to this day.
Following Saint Bridget's specifications, the cathedral's chancel sits at the west end instead of the traditional eastern position.
