Løgum Abbey, Cistercian monastery in Løgumkloster, Denmark
The red brick monastery complex includes a Latin cross design church with a nave, two side aisles, and numerous chapels along its perimeter.
Founded in 1173 by Bishop Stefan of Ribe, the monastery experienced a devastating fire in 1190, leading to its complete reconstruction in local red bricks.
The monastery maintains three bells within its structure, with the oldest dating from 1442 and two additional bells cast in the 1920s.
Modern visitors can access multiple facilities at the site, including a conference center, church music school, art museum, and theological education center.
The church structure combines both rounded Romanesque arches and pointed Gothic arches, representing architectural transitions from 1225 to 1235.
