The house of parish in Jelling has found its form in the light of the many parameters, concerns and demands given to a house in a historic and protected context. The house can be seen as a solitaire building. At the same time the house relates itself to the row of town houses I Jelling, which also has an important story to tell, although it is local and ‘just’ about Jelling, and maybe not relates directly to the protected site and history.
