Tilsandede Kirke - Great Attractions (Skagen, Denmark) [HD]

Take a tour of Tilsandede Kirke in Skagen, Denmark – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

At first glance, the Tilsandede Kirke, located in Skagen, Denmark, isn't much to look at.

However, the small, white tower that can be seen is only one part of the whole church.

The rest of the church remains buried under the earth, hence the name, which means Sand-Buried Church.

The Tilsandede Kirke closed in 1795 after sandy winds continuously built up dunes around the church.

Locals used the stones from several parts of the church for other buildings in the area.

After much research, the location of the nave and vestry was discovered and marked with stakes for visitors.
