Abstract

Only few of the Danish medieval parish churches can be dated. This paper presents an attempt of doing so by the help of dendrochronology of a number of church roofs of different types. Results show this is possible although only in cases where original roofs are preserved in a sufficient degree. The typology of church roof constructions has been revisited and so has the general dating of types and their origins.
