Church of Our Lady

Church of Our Lady

Our Lady Church is Copenhagen Cathedral.
It has been since the diocese was established in 1922. The church is in his time dedicated to the Virgin Mary, in particular, previously also called Our Lady.
Since the 12th century there has been a church on site. However, the church building is burned and rebuilt several times. The present church was built in the early 19th Century Classical style.

My own experience: I have visited the beautiful church. I am impressed by how beautiful the church is inside, the room is bright, high ceilings, stylish and yet there are many details when you look a little closer.

In 2004, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary married in Our Lady Church and I saw the wedding ceremony on television.

In Danish: Vor frue kirke er Københavns domkirke. Det har den været siden stiftets oprettelse i 1922.
Kirken er i sin tid tilegnet jomfru Maria, som især tidligere også blev kaldt Vor Frue.
Siden det 12. århundrede har der ligget en kirke på stedet. Dog har kirkebygningen er brændt og genopbygget flere gange. Den nuværende kirke er bygget i starten af det 19. århundrede i klassicistisk stil.

Mine egne erfaringer: Jeg har besøgt den smukke kirke. Jeg er imponeret hvor smuk kirken er
indvendigt, rummet er lyst, højt til loftet stilrent og alligevel er der mange detaljer når man
kigger lidt nærmere.

I 2004 blev Kronprins Frederik og Kronprinsesse Mary gift i Vor frue kirke, og vielsen så jeg selvfølgelig på tv.
