Geocache Description:


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Asks kyrka byggdes på 1100-talet och är en av tre ”östgötska romanska östtornskyrkor”, dvs den har ovanligt nog tornet i öster. Kyrkan är uppförd av huggen kalksten. Kalkmålningarna i kyrkan är från 1400-talet. På kyrkogården finns en minnesten från Nordiska sjuårskriget som utkämpades 1563-1570. Vintern 1567-68 plundrades och brändes gårdarna i trakten runt Asks kyrka av danskarna.


Ask’s church was built in the 12th century and has its tower facing east which is very unusual. It is built from limestone and its mural paintings are from the 15th century. In the church yard you will find a memorial stone from the Nordic seven-year-war which was fought between 1563 and 1570. This neighbourhood was hit in the winter 1567-68 when the Danish army looted and burned down several farms.
