St Olaf's Church, Lutheran cathedral in Helsingør, Denmark

The red-brick basilica features a high-roofed nave with lower aisles, complemented by windows along the upper walls and a porch on the south side.

The original structure from 1200 underwent Gothic modifications in the early 15th century, leading to the addition of a western tower and burial chapel around 1475.

St Olaf's Church contains two Dutch alabaster altarpieces from Birgitte Gøye and Herluf Trolle, along with a carved pulpit created by Jaspar Matiessen in 1567.

The cathedral serves as the main religious building for Danish citizens in Helsingør, situated at coordinates 56.035556 latitude and 12.614444 longitude.

The church tower reaches a height of 105 meters and incorporates stepped gables, copper-plated roofs, and gutters in its architectural design.
