Sejerslev Church

Sejerslev Kirke – a Romanesque church on Mors with granite, noble traces and living history

In the heart of Mors you'll find a church of strength and history

Sejerslev Kirke is a large and well-maintained church dedicated to St Nicholas.

It consists of a Romanesque nave, chancel and apse built from granite ashlar blocks, supplemented by a late Gothic tower and porch. The church's setting and solid materials lend a particular weight and calm to the landscape.

Details that speak – from stone faces to Rococo decoration

Even from outside you are met by two faces carved into the tower wall – small, enigmatic witnesses from the past.

Inside the stories continue: an altarpiece from 1601, an enclosed manorial pew with painted Rococo decorations and pew ends with carved coats of arms.

The pulpit, executed by Niels Snedker from Selde in the mid-17th century, is a particular highlight. It consists of six panels, three of which form an oriel facing north – a fine example of the craftsmanship and design of the period.
