Nazarethkirken
Graabjergvej 4B, Ryslinge
Nazarethkirken in Ryslinge (Ryslinge parish, Ringe deanery, Fyens diocese) was consecrated on 8 August 1866, after the popular priest Vilhelm Birkedal had been dismissed as parish priest in the town because of criticism of King Christian 9, whom, in frustration over the defeat to Germany in 1864, he had asked God to give "a Danish heart". The church's baptismal dish was donated by N.F.S. Grundtvig, who approved the formation of what became Denmark's first free congregation. The composer Thorvald Aagaard served for a period as organist at the church.
