FÃ¥revejle Kirkeby: Church, Nature and Active Days

At North Canal, Fårevejle Kirkeby reveals a quiet, open side of the landscape. North Canal runs through the village, and from Fårevejle Kirkeby, paths lead along the canal into the open countryside. Nearby lies Vejrhøj, a Bronze Age burial mound 121 metres above sea level. The first section of the Højderygstien follows the Vejrhøjbuen ridge and is 7 kilometres long. When planning the routes, visitors can consider the canal section in the village and the section across the ridge separately.

Church with Medieval Traces

FÃ¥revejle Church is open for quiet visits. Its nave dates from the 12th century, while the chancel and tower date from the 15th century. The porch, sacristy and side chapel were added in the 16th century. The vaults of the nave contain frescoes from the 14th century. The altar dates from 1575; Christian III's Bible from 1550 is kept there. Beneath the side chapel is a crypt where the Earl of Bothwell, Marie Stuart's third husband, is buried.
