Gudme Kirke - Gudme, Danmark - Medieval Churches on Waymarking.com

Gudme Kirke formodes at være fra omkring år 1200. En mønt fra den tid, blev fundet under en restaurering af kirken. Måske har der tidligere ligget en stavkirke. På nordvæggen i kirken hænger der et stykke af en bjælke med et udskåret et mandshoved med tartarskæg. Det formodes at være en rest fra den stavkirke, som omkring år 1150 - 1200 blev afløst af den nuværende kirke.
Gudme Kirke er ombygget og tilbygget gennem årene. Derfor er noget af kirken kampesten og noget er teglværk. Tårnet er først bygget til kirken omkring år 1500.



Gudme Church is believed to be from around the year 1200. A coin from that time was found during a restoration of the church. Maybe there used to be a stave church. On the north wall of the church hangs a piece of a beam with a carved male head with a tartar beard. It is believed to be a remnant of the stave church, which around the years 1150 - 1200 was replaced by the current church.
Gudme Church has been rebuilt and extended over the years. Therefore, some of the church is boulders and some are brickwork. The tower was first built for the church around the year 1500.
