Inspiration from an old source, Ledøje Church, Denmark

My eighty five year old Mother-in-law grew up in Ledøje, Denmark. Yesterday we took a short road trip with her to her childhood village. The church there is special in that it's the only two level church in Denmark including a second altar upstairs. I had heard this before and imagined the church to be quite big. In reality the church which was built in the 1200's is itty bitty small, but BIG on charm. I was really inspired by the chalk paintings inside the church, so I took loads of photos while the choir was practicing their Christmas carols. Beautiful.
