Tommerup Church

Tommerup Church

“Once upon a time, when a distinguished Lady drove to the church, the horses became frightened and bolted with the carriage.
Agonised with fear, the Lady vowed that if she were to survive this terrible danger, she would build a church in the village of Tommerup in the county of Odense. And her divine promise helped her to walk away from the carriage unharmed, after which she kept her word and gave the town the church which it still has to this very day!”

(From an old legend about the building of Tommerup Church.)
