Every Fifteen Steps...

... there is another church in Denmark. Trust me on this, we romped around this country like crazies and I've never seen so many places of worship.
Kind of like Rexburg...
Except these buildings are elaborate and gaudy and beautiful. Like a first grade art project.
Here are a few favorites...
Christianborg Slot Kirke

Vor Frue Kirke or Our Lady's Church
This church, or cathedral rather, houses the original Christus and apostle sculptures. But that's for another post....

Runde Kirke or Round Church



Painting in St. Petris Kirke or St. Peter's Church

This isn't a church at all. How'd this bugger sneak in here? It's the University of Copenhagen courtyard. And obviously it has cathedral envy.

The Church of the Holy Ghost

St. Petris Kirke


Round Church organ pipes.


And a view from the Round Church Tower.
