Christopher (Danish: Christoffer Valdemarsen; 1341 – 11 June 1363), Duke of Lolland, was the son of King Valdemar IV of Denmark and his wife, Helvig of Schleswig.

[citation needed] Christopher actively participated in the war for reconquest of Scania which his father had initiated.

According to Nordisk familjebok, Christopher was shot in the head with a rock and subsequently suffered from a mental disorder.

His tomb was originally commissioned in Central Europe, and depicts the alabaster effigy of a young knight in full armor studded with jewels and surrounded by the heraldic shields of Denmark, Halland and Lolland.

[citation needed] The alabaster tomb visible today was restored in 1879 by sculptor Vilhelm Bissen from fragmentary pieces after being destroyed during the Reformation.
