Historic Churches of Bornholm

Bornholm's medieval landscape is defined by its four unique round churches—Østerlars, Nylars, Sankt Ols, and Ny Kirke—originally built in the 12th century to serve as both places of worship and defensive fortresses. These iconic white-washed structures are complemented by historic Romanesque parish buildings like Aa Church in Aakirkeby and St. Bodil's. Known for their thick granite walls and distinct architectural silhouettes, these 14 sites offer a window into the island’s religious history and strategic importance in the Baltic Sea during the Middle Ages.
