About

Lyby Church

In the Middle Ages, Lyby Church was considered the “Syssel Church” for the Salling district, with a local assembly held at nearby Bostrup Tinghøj. In 1375, a gathering took place in the church, where the region’s leading men discussed the hardships of the time: war, fire, crop failure, disease, and dwindling fish stocks. There, with hands raised to heaven, they swore to defend the church’s freedoms and rights – a vow that still echoes in the stones.
