Østerlars kirke - Østerlars church
Østerlars Rundkirke is Bornholm's and Denmark's largest
Østerlars Rundkirke is also the most famous of the four Bornholm round churches and is among Bornholm's largest sights.
Østerlars Rundkirke - also called Saint Laurentius' church - considered to be the oldest of the four Bornholm round churches, although one does not know exactly when the churches were built.
Probably the church goes back to approx. 1150 - and as the other churches on Bornholm have been used both as a church and as a guard against enemies from the sea. The roof is first laid out much later, when the church has lost its importance as a defense building.
