Torkilstrup Church

[1][2] The west part of the chancel and the nave from the Romanesque period are built of hewn fieldstone with a few limestone trimmings.

Rounded-arch friezes, sometimes with ornamental lilies, decorate the north and south walls of the nave, indicating an early design.

The extension of chancel possibly occurred as early as the 14th century but could have been during the Late Gothic period when the tower and porch were added.

[3] The low Romanesque chancel arch was probably adapted when cross-vaulting was added to the nave in the Gothic period.

The altar painting (1840) is by Lucie Marie Ingemann, depicting the Bible story Suffer the little children to come unto me.
