About

Mesing Church

Exceptionally picturesque church with a roman choir and nave in carved granite ashlars with a very fine play of colours. Porch and tower have been added during the Late Middle Ages. The tower is a so-called stilt tower otherwise primarily seen in Djursland (a large peninsula on the eastern coast of Jutland). In the southward embankment of the church a beautiful brick portal from 1930 can be seen. In the centre square of the altar piece from around 1590 is a picture of Christ on the cross. The pulpit from 1613 is a renaissance piece with Corinthian columns and archaic squares.
