Vinkel church, ab. 7 km southeast of Viborg
Vinkel sogn, Middelsom herred, Viborg amt.
South door with three pillars and two lions
North door with griffin and lion in tympanon
Vinkel church, built ab. 1160, is situated in the village Vinkel, which was first mentioned in 1263. The Romanesque church is built in pretty carved granite boulders with a magnificent play of colours. Some Romanesque windows are preserved. The portal in the south wall has three pillars on each side and a finely carved lintel with two relief lions. The late medieval tower which is rather big for a village church, was restored in 1744. A porch in front of the south door was demolished in 1867-68, after which the tower room was converted into front hall.
In the tower room is a walled in Romanesque toomb stone and an aspersorium from the Catholic period. Inside the church the Romanesque chorus arch is preserved, and in the eastern corners of the nave are niches for Catholic side altars and a walled in leprosy-window. Upon the bricked communion table is a Renaissance altar piece from the beginning of the 1600s, and upon the northern wall of the nave is a big Gothic crucifix. The Romanesque baptismal font in granite is the oldest piece in the church. The pulpit is Baroque from 1649. In 1944-49 during a restoration of the church the pulpit and the crucifix were repainted with the original colours.
