Bethany Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church
It is a T-shaped one-story gable-front frame building with a central entry tower, similar to other Danish churches in Audubon County and adjacent Shelby County. It faces to the west, and has an ell on the north which was built in 1906 to serve as a schoolhouse.
It was deemed significant in part for its association with the history of the Danish Lutheran Church, which split in 1894, in the two county area. It was built, at least partly, by skilled Danish carpenter/cabinet-maker, Nis P. Hjuler, and reflects Danish decorative arts.
