Hunseby Church

Hunseby Church is placed within the village of Hunseby some 3 km north of Maribo on the Danish island of Lolland. Built within the center of the 12th century, the church has a Romanesque chancel and nave and a Gothic tower. The church was at the beginning committed to St Andrew as can be seen from the inscription on the oldest bell from 1465. From Romanesque inscriptions inside the stonework helping an antique portal, it seems the church need to have existed inside the middle of the 12th century.
