Maribo Lake situates the church in a very beautiful vicinity, right besides the main building of Engestofte manor. The whitewashed Gothic church was restored inside in 1856-57. Pews, organ case and pulpit in modern Gothic style are painted to look like oak, and the pulpit, decorated by Willie the carver - Copenhagen, furthermore with gilt. The altarpiece is a late Gothic cabinet with double side panels, certainly a work from Lübeck from about 1510. It is considered to be among the most beautiful and most valuable churches in Northern Europe.

The memorial table to Monica Wichfeld, who died in a German prison on the 17th February 1945, is a sandstone table with bronze script set up in the porch.
