Tejn Church is located at Tejn on the north-east coast of the Danish island of Bornholm. The most recent of the island's churches, it was built in 1940 to a Functionalist design by Emanuel Grauslund (1901-1951). It is a simple, whitewashed building on a granite base with rectangular, small-paned windows and a red-tiled roof.[1][2]
Inside, the distinctive font consists of loosely connected granite blocks. The organ from 1980 was built by Finn Krohn.[2]
