Østerlars Church, located in Gudhjem on the Danish island of Bornholm, is one of the largest and most well-known round churches in Denmark. Dating back to the 12th century, the church is renowned for its unique architectural design, characterized by its circular nave and central pillar, which supports a conical roof. The church's fortified structure suggests it was also used for defensive purposes during medieval times. Inside, visitors can admire medieval frescoes and artifacts that highlight the church's historical and cultural significance.
