Hove Church

Hove Church is a Romanesque stone church that was probably built around the middle of the 12th century and was substantially restored by Peter A. Blix after he bought the church in 1880. In the 1880s, the half-timbered tower to the west was replaced by a square stone tower. The interior is characterised by Blix's restorations.
