The romanesque Grevinge Church is located in the town. The Danish Post-Impressionist painter and poet Sigurd Swane, one of the Odsherred Painters, lived for many years in the farm house Malergården in the hamlet of Plejerup, not far from Grevinge. In 2004 the house and grounds were established as a museum.[2]
