A refined church with French-Dutch roots

The Reformed Church, located on Gothersgade near the King’s Garden, is home to the Reformed congregation in Copenhagen.

 

Built in 1689 by French and Dutch Reformed immigrants, the church is a fine example of restrained Classical church architecture with simple elegance and symmetry. It stands out from many other churches in the city with its discreet exterior and bright, harmonious interior where services and cultural events continue to take place. The Reformed Church is known for its openness, historical significance, and deep connection to the Reformed tradition in Denmark. It serves both as a peaceful spiritual space and a testament to the religious diversity that has shaped Copenhagen for centuries.

The Reformed Church is not one of the most prominent churches, as it is somewhat hidden behind the trees, but you can get a good view from the opposite side of Gothersgade. The church’s front also faces north, so you’ll need to get up early if you hope to catch a bit of sunlight on the facade.
