[edit]

Although I heard about Kaj Munk when I lived in Silkeborg for a few months long ago, I didn't remember he was a priest. According to google maps, his Gothic stone parish church in Western Denmark still exists, with a postal address of Vesterhavsvej 70, 6990 Ulfborg, Denmark. However, apparently the parish itself was so small (probably except in summers and Munk was murdered in January near the Nazi army HQ in Silkeborg) or the building sold for other uses, that it doesn't figure in the modern county/municipal reorganization, nor is it among the churches listed on the current website for the current and very geographically large Holstebro Kommune.Jweaver28 (talk) 13:32, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I confirmed from a Danish site that the church is no longer used, but instead became a memorial to Munk. However, the website I found turned out to be a dead link.Jweaver28 (talk) 14:41, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
