The Catholic Church in Denmark (Danish: Katolsk kirke i Danmark) is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope in Rome. The number of Catholics in Denmark, a predominantly Lutheran country, comprises 1.3% of the population. The Catholic Church has been present in the area that now constitutes the Kingdom of Denmark since Saint Ansgar in the 9th century initiated a Danish mission. However, the Lutheran Reformation in 1536 meant an end to Catholicism in Denmark for nearly a century and a half. In 1682, it was re-recognized by the Danish state, along with the Reformed Church and Judaism, although conversion to Catholicism from Lutheranism remained illegal. The constitution of 1849 provided for religious freedom and the Catholic Church was again allowed to spread in Denmark, but it has never grown to become more than a small minority.
