Burs Church

The oldest parts of the church is the Romanesque nave, while the large choir is Gothic and richly decorated in the style of the time.

Inside, the church has an altarpiece from the 15th century and a Gothic choir stall, among other things.

The church in Burs derives its unusual shape from the fact that it was built in stages.

The same workshop probably made an unusual, elaborate carved limestone choir bench inside the church, on which traces of original paint are still visible.

Of furnishings, the altarpiece has been described as an unusually accomplished work of art made in Lübeck[3] or northern Germany during the first half of the 15th century.
