Reformed Church, Baroque church in Indre By, Denmark
The Reformed Church is a baroque church building in Copenhagen featuring red brick walls, Ionic pilasters, and a triangular pediment. It stands on Gothersgade street near Rosenborg Castle in the city center.
The church was founded in 1689 by Queen Charlotte Amalie, who held Reformed beliefs while married to the Lutheran King Christian V. It was created as a place of worship for the growing German-speaking population of the city.
Three different language groups gather here for worship, each bringing their own traditions and customs to the services. This reflects the diverse community that has made this place home across generations.
The building is easy to reach and welcomes visitors during regular service times, especially on weekends. It is helpful to check opening hours in advance to ensure the interior is accessible when you plan to visit.
The organ inside dates to 1724 and originally belonged to Copenhagen Castle before being relocated to this church. The instrument showcases craftsmanship alongside many carved wooden details that fill the interior space.
