Cathedral with a mix of styles, dedicated to the patron saint of sailors St. Clement, featuring a tapered bell tower, paintings and frescoes

A mixture of styles for this cathedral dedicated to the patron saint of sailors, Saint Clement. From the street, it shoots up to the sky thanks to its 96-metre high spindle-shaped bell tower. Rather sober on the outside, its busy decoration makes it look more like a Catholic church, almost flamboyant, than an austere Lutheran temple: numerous paintings with very elaborate frames, gilding and statues galore. Baroque organ and, on the altar, a triptych by the Master of Lübeck from 1479. In some places, some 16th century frescoes have been restored to their former glory!

à ne pas manquer
Superbe édifice aux dimensions harmonieuses et aux fresques précieuses. Attention, l'église ferme au public à 16 heures et ce en plein été!

Rustique
Cathédrale rustique et traditionnelle danoise. Je n'ai pas pu profiter de l'intérieur, dommage... Attention aux heures à lesquelles vous vous y rendez !

Très bel édifice religieux en centre ville, impressionnant par sa hauteur, son orgue et ses décorations, notamment son autel impérial et ses nombreuses fresques avec parfois des personnages originaux, sculptures et bas-reliefs religieux. A visiter absolument !
