Grundtvigs-Kirke-Copenhagen-Denmark

Apse of Grundtvigs Kirke (Grundtvig’s_Church) in Copenhagen, Denmark. A spectacular example of modernist, minimalist Gothic architecture. Wikipedia describes it as ‘expressionist’ but it is clearly not – it is too restrained, the decorative elements are minimised and there is a phenomenal sense of stillness and tranquility. It is a fabulous colour too – photographs don’t really capture the delicacy of the yellow/cream brickwork in the interior of the church.
