Christiansfeld, Denmark

CHRISTIANSFELD (Denmark)

This town of 3,008 souls in Southern Denmark was founded by the Moravian Church in 1773 and named for Danish King Christian VII, who supported the town's construction. Its one- or two-story homogeneous buildings surround a central Church Square bordered by two parallel streets; it is the best-preserved example of the Church's town-planning and architecture.
