Lonely Planet review for Vor Frelsers Kirke (Church of Our Saviour)

The extraordinary spire is the main draw at this 17th-century church close to Christiania. It takes a strong resolve to climb all the way to the top, 400 steps and 95m up, as the last 150 steps run around the outside of the tower, narrowing to the point where they literally disappear. The tower was added to the church in 1752 by Lauritz de Thurah, who took his inspiration from Boromini’s tower of St Ivo in Rome.
