Both outside and inside, the historic church of the Moravian Brethren (‘Brodremenighedens Kirke’ in Danish) didn’t resemble any of the churches we have ever seen and that made it particularly interesting. Viewed from the outside, it’s a very simple yellow stone building with a black tiled roof. The central part, crowned by a tiny copper-clad clock tower, dates from 1776, the symmetrical gabled wings were added in 1796. The inside is even more surprising and reflects the simplicity advocated by the brethren community: a huge hall with wooden floors, white ceilings, white walls, simple white wooden benches. No altar, no pulpit, no decoration or colour, apart from a green cloth with the church’s emblem, the Lamb of God carrying the flag of victory. We found it quite beautiful. We regretted not to find the usual informative leaflet though. It is interesting to compare this church with the parish church (‘Tyrstrup Kirke’, reviewed elsewhere), just a short walk along Haderslevvej to the south of Christiansfeld centre.
