History

One of the first permanent settlements in Lincoln County, it was settled about 1869 by Danish Lutherans [2] who laid the cornerstone for a stone church in 1876. Built of the "post rock" limestone that is so abundant in the county, it was completed in 1880. A bell tower and entry were added in 1901.[ citation needed ]

Denmark is part of "The Amazing 100 Miles". The history and folklore has been described by Ruth Sorensen in "Beyond the Prairie Wind".[ citation needed ]
