Terslev Church dates back to the 12th century and is one of the oldest churches in Denmark. The church was restored by architects Johannes and Inger Exner in 1978–79.[2][3]
In 1911, when some boys were digging up a garden in Terslev, they came across a silver treasure, of mostly Arab and Persian origin, from the Viking Age.[4][5]
