Agger Church
A small village church at the fishing village Agger in Thy, built in 1838 as a replacement for a medieval church that was engulfed by the sea.
In the Middle Ages, the parish housed 6 cities and a church, which is now several kilometers out in the North Sea.
In 1838, the present church, designed by the architect C. F. Hansen, was consecrated. Agger Church is thus the parish's third.
