Some of Denmark’s most splendid frescoes are splashed across the walls and ceiling of Keldby’s 13th-century brick church. The oldest (1275) decorate the chancel walls. An impressive Judgment Day scene, where the saved join the saints and the damned descend into a devil-filled hell, dates from around 100 years later. It’s a theme also visited by the 15th-century ‘Elmelunde master’, whose cool-faced figures are found all over the soaring arches.
