About
Bellinge Church - fresco paintings
Bellinge church is a late Gothic church with nave and narrower choir, built in about 1300. Bellinge church is especially known for its beautiful and very unusual frescoes, which are about 500 years old. The frescoes are unusually clear and distinct, having been whitewashed over for almost 300 years in the period after the Reformation, when churchgoers were not allowed to see the fine pictures. They were uncovered again in 1886 and have since been restored a couple of times, most recently in 1990.
