Flott kirke, men virker litt liten og anonym i gaten, man kan fort gå forbi denne kirken som ellers er den Romersk katolske hovedkirken i Danmark.

Durfte hier Pfingsten 2025 mit dem Bischof feiern. Als Touristin habe ich mich sehr wohl gefühlt, der Gottesdienst war sehr schön und hinterher hat der Bischof jeden Besucher persönlich verabschiedet.
