Brorson's Church

The church exhibits Byzantine and late Romanesque architecture with red brick walls, granite corners, and a square-shaped central tower rising above the cruciform layout.

Architect Thorvald Jørgensen, who later designed Christiansborg Palace, completed the construction of Brorson's Church in 1901 with master mason Vilhelm Køhler.

The interior features lime frescos of Christ with Evangelist symbols, glass paintings by Axel Hou, and wall verses by Hans Adolph Brorson.

A double granite staircase leads to the main entrance in the south-eastern cross arm, where visitors find a large rose window above the portal.

The church contains the world's only graffiti altarpiece, created by artist Brandon Lewis and architect Tue Bondo Arentoft.
