[[Nexø Church]], dating back to the late Middle Ages, stands out with its half-timbered tower and copper spire. In the 18th century, it was enlarged as a result of Nexø's prosperity from exporting fish and sandstone to Copenhagen. It has recently been renovated and redecorated.<ref>[http://www.kirkehistorie.dk/borno/ki133.htm "Nexø Kirke"], ''Kirkehistorie.dk''. {{in lang|da}} Retrieved 27 September 2012.</ref>
