    St. John's Church is a redstone Knights Hospitaller monastery church located right in the center of Odense, near Kongens Have and Odense Castle. When the church was built, it was located in the northernmost part of Odense, as the city appeared in the Middle Ages. The earliest mention of the church dates back to 1295, when it was actually St. Michael's Church. Later, in 1329, there is a written reference to St. John's Monastery. The church is built in the Gothic style and has some fine details, including an outside pulpit on the south side, where services could probably have been held for lepers and outlaws who were not allowed to come to church. During World War II, the church's two pastors used the outside pulpit for a series of devotions for the Odense citizens in attendance. Not much remains of the original church, which was most recently modernized three times in 1997-98.
