The old Carmelite Monastery, Our Lady Monastery, and Sct. Mariae Church, the Church of St. Mary in Elsinore / Helsingør, Denmark.


The Carmelite Monastery of Our Lady is one of the best preserved monasteries in northern Europe. Constructed by poor White Brothers,mendicant friars, during the years 1430-1500. After the reformation in 1536, the monastery was converted to a hospital and old people's home. It was thoroughly restored in 1900-1907 by professor Storck, but displays a great number of its original murals
