Svanninge Church is located at the foot of the Svanninge Hills. The characteristic profile of the church has been evident in the landscape north of Faaborg since 1838. The history of the church goes back further, however, and its yellow-washed walls contain remains of the former church from the Middle Ages.

The church building was designed by Professor G. F. Hetsch, one of the most important architects of his time. He was commissioned to build it by Count Brahe, who was inspired by the churches he had seen on his travels in Austria when designing the tower.
