Eskilstrup Church

[1] At the beginning of the 16th century, the church was owned by the bishopric under the administration of its seat at Sørup on Lolland.

[2] The church consists of a Late Romanesque apse, chancel and nave and a Gothic tower and porch, all built of brick.

The red brick tower on a fieldstone base has flat arched windows to the south and west.

The central painting by Stefan Viggo Pedersen (1926) depicts the announcement of Jesus' birth to the shepherds.

With the four Evangelists in shell-framed panels, it closely resembles the pulpit in Lolland's Ryde Church.

The pilasters have however been renewed during rebuilding work in 1805 although the cherub heads and ornamental decorations have been retained.
