Cycle Route Around Falster

The Middelaldercentret (Middle Ages Center) is an experimental living history museum in Denmark situated in the town of Nykøbing Falster .

It features a village, boats, market, and siege weapons of the period. All of the items are built on site using period tools. Activities include live firing of the weapons, archery, tournaments of knights, and demonstrations of crafts and tasks from the late 14th century.

Fanefjord Church, one of the Danish island of Møn 's most famous attractions, is located in an open setting overlooking the Baltic Sea inlet of Fanefjord between Store Damme and Hårbølle . Standing majestically on the top of a small hill, the church's red-tiled roof and whitewashed walls can be seen from considerable distances, whatever the direction. The interior is of particular interest in view of the many frescos dating back to the 13th and 16th centuries.

For many generations, Fanefjord's Church frescos were hidden under a covering of plaster. After frescos had been discovered at the end of the 19th century in Møn's Elmelunde Church, those in Fanefjord were painstakingly uncovered from 1932 to 1934 under the guidance of the National Museum . In 2009, major restoration work was completed on the frescos, revealing their original colours and impact.

The earliest frescos, on the triumphal arch, were painted around 1350. They depict the four evangelists, as well asSt ChristopherandSt George.

The most famous frescos are however those dating back to about 1500 which cover large areas of the church's ceiling and upper walls. In the so-called Biblia pauperum style, they present many of the most popular stories
