Holy spring at Bølling Church

Holy spring at Bølling Church

Kapels Kilde was just one of perhaps 700 holy springs in Denmark. Belief in the power of the spring probably dates back to ancient times, but it also became part of the medieval Catholic Church's world of faith.

Located in the meadow right between the church and the vicarage in Bølling, it became too much for the parish's Lutheran pastor, who stopped the spring sometime in the 1800s. That was the end of papism - and there was no longer any need for the small recess in the south wall of the church, where the healed used to leave their thank-you gifts.

The healing waters of the spring must have been particularly good for problems with the eyes or limbs.

Kaj Munks Præstegård

The poems in the garden are wonderful

You'll get a vividly narrated introduction to the museum about Kaj Munk's life, so you're ready for the visit. The poems in the garden are wonderful and the café right in the middle of the museum overlooking the water is unique.

We can only recommend it

Really nice Viking village with a cozy café. There are employees present in the houses who are happy to give explanations. To our delight, it is also in German, which is not to be expected in a foreign country. The small shop, which also serves as a ticket office, offers jewelry and everyday items.

Much to play and discover

A beautifully landscaped area, there is a lot to play and discover outside. The exhibits in the main building are interesting and child-friendly. The additional offers are also diverse and carefully planned. The staff was always nice and helpful. We will gladly come back!

Very cool Viking village

Very cool Viking village with many attractions. We could do archery, bake bread and more. You also get a lot of information about the Viking Age and the actors are very authentic. You can even find a blacksmith shop here. We can only recommend it, a visit is worth it.

Impressive reconstruction

Impressive reconstruction of a Viking village that you can touch. There are fun activities (e.g. archery, leather bag and bracelet making) for children (around 4 to 14 years old). We spent a good 4 to 5 hours exploring everything in peace and doing the activities with the kids. If you are local and interested in Vikings, you should not miss this highlight!
