Voer Church

Voer Kirke is an exciting medieval church from 1150 and has a close relationship with Voergaard Castle. After the 1400th century, various owners of Voergård transformed the church into one of Vendsyssel's most peculiar church buildings through several extensive alterations and additions.

In 1604, Ingeborg Skeel had lordly chairs and a pulpit set up which show the farmer's life throughout the year. In the beautiful chapel you will find a large sandstone epitaph for Ingeborg Skeel and her spouse, as well as a memorial stone for her parents and brother.

In the church you can see a large tapestry (painted tapestry) approx. 1820 of Peter's fishery and outside you will find the tombstone of Minister of State and Foreign Affairs Erik Scavenius on the south side of the church. There is a descent to the crypt under the choir and chapel at the east gable of the church.

The church is always open, but check for today's activity on www.voer-agersted.dk

 

Dorf Møllegård

Dorf Møllegård contains the story of life on a mill farm in the early 1900s.

In addition to the quadrangular farm with the impressive architect-designed farmhouse from 1925, the listed mill farm complex consists of a water mill from the 1600th century and a windmill from 1887. The mills ground grain until the middle of the 1900th century. In addition, the water mill was used to produce direct current for the farm right up until 1995.

Møllegården's buildings are located idyllically by the beautiful mill lake on the outskirts of Dronninglund Storskov. A scenic route leads from the mill farm and all the way around the mill lake. The trip ends where it began and can be appropriately rounded off by a visit to the mill farm's cozy café with coffee, cake or ice cream.

Dorf Møllegård is open daily in June, July and August.
