Museums rich with history
The Coastal Land is abundant in culture and history, so wherever you are going, you’ll find exciting stories to delve in. Here we've collected four museums, that really bring history to life - each and every one is a memorable experience for the whole family.
Glud Museum Would you like to know how life in the Danish countryside has been during the last 350 years? At Glud Museum you can enter Denmark’s oldest farmhouse, participate in fun family activities, experience workshops with volunteers working as blacksmiths, wood workers and weavers - or go see the the big show hall with farm tools, carriages, and crafts.
Horsens Museum
Odder Museum Odder Museum is situated right in the heart of Odder in a lovely green area close to the high street. When you visit the museum, you can explore the old mill that it is still fully functioning despite it being closed for 65 years. The museum is also known for its comprehensive program of activities and events, which often take place outside of the buildings of the museum.
Uldum Mølle Museum
Learn more about Horsens' history at Horsens Museum. See the exhibition on the local explorer Vitus Bering. Study the archeological artefacts and skeletons - or find out more about Horsens’ developments through time. Our favourite thing is perhaps joining one of the historical city walks taking place throughout the year.
In the village of Uldum you’ll find a beautiful Dutch mill, standing tall as an idyllic local landmark. See the three grinder mills where the production takes place and walk onto the gallery and see the 23-metre-long wings up close – and remember to buy some of the products in the mill’s shop. Inside the beautifully preserved mill you can also experience a historical exhibition about the nearby marshlands Uldum Kær where Denmark’s only river Gudenå passes through.
