St. Bendt's Church stands in Ringsted, Denmark, and is a Romanesque brick church dating to about 1170. It replaced an earlier travertine church from about 1080 and is considered the oldest brick church in Scandinavia. Originally part of a Benedictine monastery, it is the first royal church in Denmark and houses the tombs of many early Danish monarchs and noblemen.
