Logumkloster - Logum Abbey Attractions 
The village of Løgumkloster, 18 km/11 mi north of Tønder, grew up around Løgum Abbey. After Tønder, Løgumkloster was for a long time the second largest lace-making center in the country. The former Cistercian abbey, founded in 1144 in an uninhabited and marshy plain, is now an ecclesiastical administrative center.
Church
Of the old Løgum Abbey buildings only a part of the east wing - including the chapter house, sacristy, library and church - remains. The abbey church (1230-1330) is impressive, with spacious Early Gothic pointed windows and beautiful pillars. The original whitewashed walls were revealed only when restoration work was carried out early this century. Inside can be seen a winged altar (ca. 1500), sumptuous choir-stalls, a reliquary with wings and a Gothic triumphal cross (ca. 1300).
Opposite the main building, the "Refugium", stands a 25m/80ft high tower with a carillon, which is heard at 8 and 11 am, 3, 5, 6.30 and 9 pm.
