History

Eskilstrup Church, built in the Romanesque style, dates from the 12th century. In accordance with local tradition, it is painted red. It is best known for its frescos, said to be Denmark's oldest. The town has grown up around Eskilstrup railway station, which opened together with the Falster Railway in 1872. The earliest buildings included businesses and hotels close to the station on the main street. The railway is now called the South Line, with frequent train stops at Eskilstrup.
