Lumby Kirke
H. C. Lumbyes Vej 32, Odense
Lumby Church is a church in Lumby parish in Odense Municipality. Its oldest parts are probably from the 1200s, and the parish is already mentioned in 1231 in King Valdemar's Land Register, where it belonged to the king's paternal estate. The estate was inherited by Valdemar Sejr's nephew, Otto of Braunschweig-Lünenburg, and when the sale of the estate by his heirs was confirmed in 1300, it is mentioned that the estate also included "that which in the vernacular is called church fief", i.e. presumably the right of patronage. It apparently returned to the Crown in 1357 and thereafter belonged to Næsbyhoved. In 1685 the Crown sold the rights of patronage and appointment to Christoffer Sehested of Nislevgård.
