Religion in Denmark

Roskilde Cathedral has been the burial place of Danish royalty since the 15th century. In 1995 it became a World Heritage Site.

Christianity is the largest religion in Denmark. As of 2024, 71.2% of the population of Denmark were registered members of the Church of Denmark (Den Danske Folkekirke),[1] the officially established church, which is Protestant in classification and Lutheran in orientation.[2][notes 1]
