Fanø

Despite is modest size, Fanø is an independent municipality. In 2005, an election was held to decide if Fanø should join the new, larger Esbjerg Municipality. 65% of the inhabitants on Fanø voted for the island to remain independent. Today, Fanø is the second smallest municipality in Denmark. Many small islands and rural districts are struggling with fewer workplaces and a decrease in population. This is not the case on Fanø. Our population is increasing and we are closing in on having 3,250 citizens. New homes are continuously being built in the new residential areas west and north of Nordby. A significant reason for the increasing population is the proximity to Esbjerg. With only a twelve-minute ferry ride, it is easy to live on Fanø and work in Esbjerg. More than 600 people commute to the mainland every day. In return, about 300 people commute the other way, to Fanø, every day to work. Fanø Municipality Fanø is controlled by a municipal council consisting of 11 persons who are elected every four years. The last municipal election took place on November 17, 2017. The municipal council appoints a mayor among its members. The current mayor is Sofie Valbjørn who is being recently elected for the next 4 years. The school on Fanø Fanø Skole, the school on Fanø, is located in Nordby. Most of the children on the island attend school here, from kindergarten class and up to the 9th or 10th grade. The school

was completely renovated in 2011 and is today one of the most modern public schools in Denmark. In connection to the school, there is also a public and school library and an after-school club. In very close proximity to the school, you also have the island’s indoor and outdoor sports facilities. Further schooling like high school or vocational education takes place in Esbjerg.

Healthcare Fanø has a large health centre which is situated in an old building that used to house the navigational training centre. Besides housing Fanø Municipality’s own healthcare personnel, located here is a private medical practice and a private dialysis centre for kidney patients. The nearest hospital is located in Esbjerg. An ambulance is stationed on the island, and an agreement has been made with the ferry to have people on call to complete emergency transports 24 hours a day. This means that the ferry can sail right away, should there be a need for an emergency transport. Libraries There are two libraries on the island, one in Nordby and one in Sønderho. They are both subdivisions of Esbjerg Bibliotik, the library in Esbjerg. The libraries have books, movies, games and free access to computers. It is also possible to visit the libraries as a visitor. Both libraries are open from morning till evening all days of the week. Most of the time, the libraries are self-serviced. For serviced opening hours, page 54

Architecture on Fanø

The many old houses on Fanø are characterized by two things: Firstly, the rough nature by the North Sea and, secondly, the wealth the island accumulated during the maritime era from the mid-18th century to the end of the 19th century. The very special farm buildings and skipper houses in Nordby and Sønderho are usually one-winged, one-storey houses with living quarters and stables in the same building. Due to the freezing west winds of winter, most of the houses’ gables are placed east to west, with the stables placed to the west. Leftovers of timber frames, small windows and gables reveal the age of the houses. The oldest houses from before 1800 have wooden siding all the way down to the eaves. From 1800 to 1850, it became more popular with wooded siding in the upper gable triangle. From the mid-19th century, the houses were usually built without the wood siding and were sometimes also tiled. Above the entrance, there is an arched gable access hatch to the attic, which is called an arkengab. The hatch leads into the attic where straw was stored. Simultaneously, the arkengab had the function of providing greater protection in the case of fire, giving the residents more time to escape the house. The fire hazard was great in that the houses were mostly made of reeds. Another characteristic detail is the green, black and white bricks above doors and windows. The three colours symbolize birth, life and death. In Hannes Hus, a museum in Sønderho, it is possible to see how a typical Fanø house was furnished and decorated.

With curved gables that are pulled above the roof surface, various houses built in the 1860s and 1870s are clearly inspired by Dutch architecture. The roofs are made from slate or brick and the windows have sills. Most of the houses are built in dark red bricks. On Fanø, it is a traditional characteristic feature to paint white lines on the joints between the bricks. This is done to protect the joints from erosion caused by wind and water, and to make a repaired facade appear more beautiful. Moreover, a portion of houses are plastered in grey, yellow and red colours. From the end of the 19th century, the houses became bigger, deeper and taller – and the architecture influenced by historicism. Some of the houses are constructed with a ‘trempel’ roof that gives the house a taller facade, a less steep pitch on the roof and better opportunities for exploiting the 1st floor space. The facades are often very decorated and have large, Danish windows. The roofs may have eaves and the rafters are often decoratively moulded.

Nordby – Fanø’s Capital

The ferry to Fanø travels from Esbjerg to Nordby. From the ferry, you will already get the first impression of the island and Nordby. A small, cosy town characterised by the many lovely houses from the 19th century and surrounded by beautiful nature. The closeness to nature is already felt at the harbour. From the promenade, one can sit and enjoy the many wading birds. Moreover, seals often lie on the small sandbank only 50 metres from the harbour. In comparison with old photographs, you can see that many of the small streets and paths have not changed significantly for centuries. You shouldn’t let yourself miss out on the great experience it is to walk about in the small crooked streets in Nordby. Nordby is also a modern and active little town. With its 2,800 inhabitants, Nordby is the commercial and administrative centre on Fanø. Town Hall, the Health Centre, the Public Library, the Sports Centre, the Tourist Office and other institutions are located here. Fanø Shipping & Costume Collection The museum displays the history of Fanø which for centuries has created various living conditions for the inhabitants and a special maritime culture. The exhibition displays ship paintings and model ships, all in a 1:48 scale, from a small Evert to the big full-rigged ships. On the 1st floor, there is an exhibition that shows the life of the women of Fanø and the characteristic, traditional Fanø cloth-

Nordby Church This is a stately and highly distinctive church in the so-called ‘assembly hall’ style, with a beautiful and simple interior, consisting of one large room that seats 700. The altar and pulpit, both from 1622, are placed at the long, south wall. The baptismal font – a metallic ore font – probably dates from the last half of the 15th century. The church has a Marcussen organ from 1845, as well as several beautiful votive ships, and was restored in 1971-72 to its original 1786 appearance.

Fanø Museum A seemingly modest building, approximately 300 years old, that houses a comprehensive collection of furniture, utensils, tools and many other things that give you an impression of how people lived circa 150-200 years ago. In addition to the domestic pieces, there is the more exotic collection of sailors’ mementoes brought to Fanø from all over the world.

Sønderho - Denmark’s most beautiful village

A visit to Sønderho is a must when you visit Fanø. It is not without reason it has won the award as Denmark’s most beautiful village. As you walk in the small streets, with the pretty old homes, you feel as if you have travelled back in time. Park the car at the church and spend a couple of hours walking in the small crooked streets, visit the Art Museum, Nana’s Stue – a café that has a lovely collection of old Fanø tiles, Hannes Hus, Sønderho Mill and Sønderho Church. The many old, well preserved buildings mainly stem from the 18th and 19th centuries, when Sønderho was the dominant shipping town of the Jutlandic west coast. The harbour and shipyard area was situated in a small sheltered bay in the north-eastern end of Sønderho. The changing currents eventually made the harbour fill with sand, and today, it is an area of meadows. Fanø Art Museum See page 40

Sønderho Windmill Villagers were once obliged to use the Crown’s mill in Ribe, on the mainland, but in 1701 the vicar eventually got permission to build one here. There have been several mills – the previous one burned down in 1894. The present mill was erected the following year and was in use until 1923. In 1928, a group of villagers and visitors who were interested in preserving the mill founded a trust (Fonden gamle Sønderho) and bought the mill.

Hannes Hus Hannes Hus faithfully maintains the old atmosphere in this 17th century captain’s home. Hanne, a captain’s widow, and her daughter Karen, lived on in this house until 1965 when it was acquired by the village Trust. Inside are the original furnishings, stove, pictures, sheep stable and souvenirs from the captain’s travels. Hannes Hus is a unique museum where one can experience a genuine Fanø sailor’s family home.

The tile collection At the restaurant, Nanas Stue, you can see a large exhibit of Dutch wall tiles, also known as Fanø tiles. The tiles were brought home by the sailors in the 19th century and used as both decoration and to reflect the heat from the houses’ ovens. Sønderho Church The close connection this church had with the maritime era has left an indelible mark on the building which has more votive ships than any other church in Denmark – 15 in all. The Baroque altar dates from 1717. This is an assembly hall church which originally seated 800 people. The unique arrangement of the pews and the position of the pulpit makes the church a building well worth visiting.

The beach and the seaside villages If you wish to make vacation in a holiday home or a campsite close to the beach, then Fanø Bad or Rindby Strand is the place to do it. Five out of the island’s seven campsites and, by far, the largest portion of holiday homes are located in this area.

12 km of sandy beach The beach is a dynamic piece of nature, constantly changing. Contrary to many other places on the West Coast, the beaches on Fanø are getting ever wider. At Fanø Bad, the beach is now more than 700 metres wide. The farther south you go, the narrower the beach gets. At the same time, a new row of dunes is forming on the beach, making the area between the new and the old row of dunes turn into marshland where sand turns to mud. West of the new row of dunes, we thus have the ‘new’ North Sea beach with fine white sand. It is permitted to drive on the beach between Fanø Bad and Sønderho. The speed limit is 30 km/h. The beaches at Fanø Bad and Rindby Strand are the most popular beaches for swimming. Farther south, you have the so-called ‘Buggy beach’ where surfing and Blokart racing is permitted. Activities on the beach The beach is so big that there is space enough for everyone. For those who want to swim and sunbathe. For those who want to play in the sand. For those who want to fly kites, surf, or ride Blokarts or kite buggies. For those who want to windsurf or kitesurf. For those who

Rindby 15

want to search for amber. For those who want peace and quiet and, also, for those who wish to spend time birdwatching. There is space enough for us all, also dogs and their owners. But remember always to be considerate of others. Dogs must be on leash in the period from April 1 to September 31.

Fanø Bad and Rindby Strand Fanø Bad and Rindby Strand both have small central areas with shops, cafés, and restaurants that all bring life to the area. In recent years, Fanø Bad has re-blossomed. Characteristic shops, such as ‘nyform’ and Victoria’s Palace have contributed towards renewal and activity all year round. Starting in 2017, Fanø Bad is scheduled to undergo a major beautification process.

At Fanø Bad lies the oldest golf course. The golf course is Denmark’s only real links golf course. In close proximity to the golf course, you will also find a minigolf course and a tennis court. On the beach, there are courts established for beach volleyball and beach football. In Rindby Strand there are two minigolf courses, a football golf course and an indoor playground in connection to the campsites. The old Rindby lies east of the holiday home area. Originally, a few farms were located here, but today there is a village hall, a restaurant and large shop that sells crafts.

The Wadden Sea National Park Fanø is located in the centre of the Wadden Sea National Park. The national park stretches from Blåvandshuk in the north of its border to the salt meadows of Tønder in the south. It is a unique natural area which includes the Wadden Sea, the islands of Fanø, Mandø, and Rømø, as well as the constructed earth embankments throughout the area, and the lowland areas along the coast of the main land.

The Wadden Sea area became a national park in 2010. In 2015 it was designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. To be included on the World Heritage Site list, the natural areas or built monuments in question must be considered to be of outstanding, universal value. Therefore, if an area is included on this list, it means that the area is globally recognised as important - also to future generations. The Landscape The Wadden Sea is outstanding because it is a large, connected natural area, while also being a relatively ‘young’ landscape. Additionally it is made unique by the fact that the landscape has been, and is, mainly shaped by the ocean and only to a tiny degree by material from rivers. The Dynamics The fact that the Wadden Sea landscape is in a state of constant change, means that animals and plants are continuously faced with both new challenges and opportunities. If their current habitats are destroyed by wind and weather circumstances, other opportunities for habitats open up elsewhere

in the Wadden Sea. The many different types of landscapes within the Wadden Sea is made up of distinct biomes, in which specialised animals or plants can live. For instance, on the mudflats and in the salt meadows the animal and plant life has adapted their lives to the coming and going of the salty tidal water. Biodiversity The Wadden Sea makes up a whole 60% of the total tidal water areas in Europe and North Africa combined. Due to the sheer size of the area it is possible for animal species to find multiple habitats within the area, or to, over the course of time, develop their very own niche in the food chain. The landscape of the Wadden Sea consists of many different elements, for example dunes, marsh and heath. However, it is naturally the mudflats that characterise the Wadden Sea. ‘Mudflat’ refers to the part of the ocean floor which is exposed at low tide. At a first glance the mudflat looks empty and dull but this is not the case at all. Most of the animals spend their lives dug into the ocean floor and have adapted to the large changes in temperature, water currents and moisture. In fact, the amount of living animals in the mudflats are 10 times higher than in the ocean floor in general. The shallowness of the water and the generous sunlight, sets the foundation for high concentrations of algae. It is these algae that provide the foundation of the widely branched out food chain of the Wadden Sea, which is made up of mudsnails, lugworms, conchs, hermit crabs and different types of claims, to name a few.

Birds on Fanø

Fanø is a wonderland for those who are interested in bird watching. This is foremost due to the migratory birds which can be observed during the spring and fall seasons, but the whole year through there are a broad range of shorebirds living on Fanø. Among the birds that are typically seen on the island can be mentioned dunlins, bar-tailed godwits, oystercatchers, common redshank, nightjars, black-tailed godwits and the kentish plover. The generous pantry of the Wadden Sea makes it one of the world’s most crucial areas for birds. Every year, 10-12 million migratory birds pass through the Wadden Sea either on their way to or from their breeding grounds in northern Scandinavia, Siberia or Greenland. However, keep in mind that the large flocks of birds on the mudflats and the beach need peace and quiet to search for food and rest. Keeping a distance to the flock will give the birds the best possible conditions to get to or from their breeding grounds or overwinter habitats, which are often located thousands of kilometres away. The best place to observe the migratory birds are by Hønen just south of Sønderho. At high tide the birds gather east of Sønderho where people are not allowed to walk out; therefore it is recommended to bring binoculars. Duck decoy A duck decoy is a large, devised trap which consists of a small, man-made lake with side canals covered with nets, which were previously used to capture wild ducks. Originally there were six duck decoys on Fanø, but in 1931 it was forbidden to capture wild ducks using this method. Two of the duck decoys

have been renovated and are open to the public. These places are quiet, peaceful and are located in beautiful surroundings. They are great places to go and visit. Albue Duck Decoy is a functioning workshop which can be visited at certain days from June to August. For opening times, please see page 54. Sønderho Old Duck Decoy is open to the public every day. Remember to close the gate after yourself and enjoy the free entrance. White-tailed eagles The white-tailed eagle is the largest bird of prey that can be observed in Denmark. In recent years it has also been possible to spot 9 white-tailed eagles on Fanø during the winter season. At the end of the day one might be lucky to see them sitting in Fanø Klitplantage (the dune heath) as they arrive at their chosen overnight spots. Or perhaps one can catch a glimpse of them by the beach during the day as they hunt their prey or scavenge for food. It is a majestic sight to experience the large bird as it soars across the sky with a wingspan of 200-240 cm. Due to its large size and its square wings, the white-tailed eagle is sometimes referred to as “The Flying Door”. Sønderho coastal lake “Sønderho Strandsø” Located on the beach a little ways north of the road down to the beach from Sønderho, lies Sønderho coastal lake. This man-made coastal lake provides a chance to experience nature up close. A camouflaged observation room has been established in the dunes for the use of visitors.

Amber - where does it come from? First, man takes the amber then amber takes the man. This Danish maxim says it all. If you have been skilled enough or lucky enough to find a beautiful piece of amber at the water’s edge, then you are irrevocably sold to the hunt for amber. Most people are caught by the hunting instinct and an increasing “gold fever” when they discover that it is actually possible to find amber. At the same time, hunting for amber is a great activity, when the weather is not warm enough for sunbathing. Actually, raw and cold weather is best, which is when the amber is swept towards the shore. Everything, also amber, floats best when the water is cold, and that is why summer is not a good season. During the winter, the weather is naturally marked by stronger wind and more storms, which is when amber as well as other substances are washed ashore. The secret, as most people know, lies partly in the direction of the wind. On Fanø, the right wind direction is from the southwest, but this will vary from place to place. As well, the wind can also be too fierce! Only when the tide has pulled back is the hunting ground revealed. Many separate events have to fit together, but this is a large part of the pleasure. It is not a coincidence that the most experienced amber collectors find the best pieces, for they know exactly when and

where the conditions are just right. However, there are no guarantees. A good tip is to keep an eye out for seagulls. Where large flocks of seagulls gather on the shore chances are that mussels, vegetable matter and, very likely, amber have washed up on the beach. The amber we find along the Danish coasts is called Baltic amber. This amber is between 30 and 50 million years old. The so-called amber forests once covered a large part of Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea areas. Today we know that the amber is old resin from extinct wood species, but earlier, there were many theories about the origins of amber. The prehistoric rivers in the Baltic Sea areas have moved the amber from one place to another. Especially the Ice Age glaciers have transported the amber to the North Sea, where storms and currents wash the amber ashore so we can collect it on the beaches. Just like people have done for the last 9,000 years. A few years ago on Fanø, a German guest found a piece of amber jewellery made in the Stone Ages. The jewellery probably came from one of the now flooded North Sea settlements. The chances of finding such a piece of jewellery or perhaps just a nugget with an embedded insect or leaf naturally increase the fascination for finding and collecting amber.

Sea fog. Weather change from one moment to the next On warm spring days you are automatically enticed towards the coast. A long winter is drawing to a close and a walk in the sun is high on the wish list. However, as you near the water on such spring days, you can be in for a surprise: the beach is shrouded in a thick, cold fog while behind the dunes, the sun shines from a cloudless sky. The fog, or sea fog as it is called, is a true spring phenomenon. It is created on the ocean when warm and moist air pumped up towards Denmark from southwest meets a cold ocean. When at the same time, the sun shines inland, the ground and the air is warmed up and this results in a sea breeze, an onshore wind that drives the sea fog towards the coast. It happens incredibly fast! It is almost as though the sea fog surprises you while your back is turned. The fog can be so close that is it is impossible to see anything. Nothing! And if you are wandering in the Wadden land-

scape, sea fog is a danger you had best beware. So, keep an eye on the weather report. Nor withstanding, the sea fog is a fascinating weather phenomenon. On the edge between fog and blue skies you can only marvel at the contrasts. Literally! The temperature differences can swing 10 degrees over very short distances dependent on whether you are inside or outside the sea fog.

The museum has been curating and communicating Denmark’s maritime history since 1968. Through objects, documents and narratives, we breathe life into the tale of our common cultural and natural heritage. Denmark’s Great Fishing Venture 150 years have passed since Esbjerg Harbour was built as a shipping harbour for agricultural produce. A series of exciting circumstances paved the way for explosive development. The fishing industry attracted young men from near and far. If you ask the fishermen,

they tell the wildest tales, often even without raising an eyebrow. That was life to them their everyday life. To mark the 100th anniversary of the harbour, interested organisations joined forces to give the city a museum to pay tribute to the fishing industry. 240 exhibitions have been held since then – large and small, for adults and children alike. The circle will be complete on the occasion of the the museum’s 50th anniversary on 24 April when the Fisheries and Maritime Museum focuses on the fishing industry itself and pays tribute to the fishing boat skippers with a new portrait exhibition – thus bringing the personal narratives about faith, hope and the love of the sea back to the city.

Come close to the common seal and Denmark’s biggest predator, the grey seal, and watch them being fed and trained. The museum also has giant skeletons of stranded whales on display.

An Incredible Danish Fishing Venture

Fanø Klitplantage (Dune Plantation) is one of the national park’s most popular places to visit and is situated centrally on the island. The planting started in 1892 and covers 1,421 ha. The trees are primarily pine and fir trees such as Mountain pine, Scots pine and Sitka spruce. Larger and larger areas are now being planted with deciduous trees. Deer In the plantation, there are plenty of forest trails where you can walk or ride a bike. Here, you can encounter both deer, fallow deer and – if you are really lucky – red deer. Deer are also spotted many places outside the plantation in the open landscape, in the holiday home areas and in the town areas. Fanø’s nature is rich in food, and there is no need to feed the animals. On the contrary, feeding the animals makes them dependent on people, and feeding them with easily digestible foods like bread and seeds increases the risk of diarrhoea in the animals and, in the worst cases, also a painful death. So, do not try to feed the animals. Rabbits There are wild rabbits on Fanø. Many wild rabbits. They are everywhere on the island, but especially in dune areas and in the holiday home areas. You can see the rabbit holes all over. Particularly in early morning and at sundown, the rabbits are active, playing or seeking food. Often times, you can sit on the cottage deck and observe the rabbits. For both children and adults, it is an unforgettable experience.

Lovely holiday experiences

Late in summer, the rabbits get hit by the so-called ‘rabbit plague’. Rabbit plague is not dangerous for other animals or humans.

The Forest Playground The playground is situated in the westernmost edge of the plantation. It is a good point of departure for hikes in this characteristic nature area. The forest playground is a magnificent natural area, a resting and picnic spot and not least a fantastic playground. The playground is a rather large area containing various playground equipment and wooden sculptures made of materials from the plantation. There are obstacle courses, climbing frames and different games. Often formed like trolls and other fantasy figures, much of the equipment is created by international tree sculptors. In the Sherwood Forest, you can play Robin Hood and his merry men. In connection to the forest playground, there is a large picnic area with fire pits and barbecue pits, some outdoors and some under a canopy which has an area that seats approximately 50 persons. There are also toilet facilities at the playground.

Beach activities Kite flying Fanø is the kite flyers’ El Dorado. The wide beach and stable wind conditions make Fanø one of the best places in the world for flying kites. Kite flying is for everyone. There are several shops that sell ready-made kites for both beginners and advanced users. If you feel like building your own kite, Club Fanø arranges kite-building workshops for children all year round. Kite flying is also a sport. Most of the summer season from April to October, kite flyers come to Fanø to set up their kites. These come in all shapes and sizes, from small traditional handheld kites to huge kites that are fixed to the ground. Every year in June, about 5,000 kite enthusiasts from all over the world gather on Fanø. Many of the participants design and build their own kites, often shaped as people, cartoon characters, animals and, of course, kites. The old tradition of decorating the kites can also be experienced on Fanø. There are no competitions or shows, as the event is merely a gathering, but the kite flyers will gladly tell the audience about their kites. Blokart and kite buggy Whirling across the beach in a wind-powered beach racer is awesome! Fanø has one of Europe’s best beaches for land sailing. There is a marked area, approximately 3 km south of Rindby, for this type of activity.

There are many different types of land sailing vehicles. One of which is a small, three-wheeled, open carriage. Some types are powered by a mounted sail, others by a handheld kite. Some vehicles require expansive knowhow, others you can learn to operate in 10 minutes. Blokart is the most popular type for rental. It is easy to ride and perfect for beginners. There is also a two-seater version, so even smaller children can experience the rush. It is a sport for all ages, for children aged 8 or 10 years and up to 88-year-olds. Blokart lessons and rental takes place on the beach throughout summer. Contact Fanø Tourist Office for further information. Kite buggy is the name of another very popular type. It is driven with a handheld kite and requires more practice. Fanø attracts some of the best kite buggy drivers, and both training camps and competitions in kite buggy are hosted here. Surfing For the beginner, as well as for the more trained surfer who seeks to perfect their style and tricks in the waves, this is a really good place to learn wave surfing. The ocean at Fanø is easily accessible and user friendly. This means that you can drive all the way down to the water, and, contrary to many other places, you do not have to drag your equipment several 100 metres.

Excursions in the National Park There are many possibilities for exciting excursions on Fanø. You can go on many of them on your own, while others are preferable to go on with a guide. On www.visitfanoe.dk and at Fanø Tourist Office, you can get information about which excursions are offered. There, you can also find various maps that show hiking trails, bike paths, etc. The Seals on Fanø The seals are one of the main attractions on Fanø. Here, we can experience the harbour seal and the grey seal in their natural environment. Several places in the sea around Fanø, the seals can be seen basking in the sun on the sandbanks or bopping their heads up in the water. There are guided tours to Galgerev, a large sandbank, south west of Sønderho, where it is possible to see up to 700 seals. At low tide, you can walk approximately 1.7 km on the seabed all the way to Galgerev. This is a sandbank that isn’t flooded at high tide. Between us and the seals is a channel with a width of approximately 100 metres, so the seals are not disturbed by us. Sometimes, a seal will jump into the water and swim closer to see what is going on.

Oysters Paradise Fanø is the right place to eat this delicious seafood. There are large quantities of oysters in the Wadden Sea, just ready to collect and eat. The type of oyster we have on Fanø today is the Pacific oyster which has been imported and has spread to all of the Wadden Sea from Holland to Denmark. We can only be thrilled of having this delicacy right on our doorstep, but, at the same time, the Pacific oyster poses a potential threat to the ecosystem of the Wadden Sea. When we collect oysters, we are also taking part in limiting this threat. There are oysters in many locations along the east coast of Fanø, but the easiest access to the oyster banks is from Halen. From here, you only need to walk a few hundred metres before reaching an area abundant with oysters. It is permitted to collect oysters all year round, but the higher water temperature in summer can cause the shellfish to contain algae and toxins. Thus, we recommend that you only collect oysters during the winter months.

The mountains on Fanø are in reality dunes which have been created by sand and wind through hundreds of years. The oldest dunes on Fanø, ie. Annesdals Bjerg and Klingebjerg, are on the east coast whereto they wandered during the Small Ice Age in the 1500’s and the 1600’s. The farther towards west we go, the younger the dunes are. On the beach between Fanø Bad and Rindby Strand, you can see a new generation of dunes being created.

The Mountains on Fanø Mountain climbing on Fanø? That sounds like a joke and maybe it is. But we have made a trail called The Big Five. The five big mountains are Kikkebjerg, Pælebjerg, Klingebjerg, Annedalsbjerg of Mosedalsbjerg. The trail is made as a geocaching trail, and you can find it on www.geocaching.com. Once you have conquered the five mountains, you have the possibility of getting a certificate at Fanø Tourist Office, Skolevej 5-7 in Nordby, which states that you are an official Fanø mountain climber. It is a fun treasure hunt for children and adults that will lead you to places not normally discovered.

Panorama route 404 Life feels greater, and food tastes better, when you bike along our Panorama route ‘Wind beneath your wings’ that reaches the best gastronomic and nature experiences. Start the trip by enjoying the view from Kikkebjerg, where the women used to look out for homecoming ships. The route goes through the centre of Nordby, passing various cafés, the butcher’s and the bakery, where you can stock up on local specialties to eat for lunch on your trip. The route takes you along the beach, so an obvious place to enjoy your lunch is in the dunes next to the beach.

plenty of time to chat and share experiences, make a race on the beach and just enjoy life.

Sø

There are bike paths between all the urban areas on Fanø (Nordby, Fanø Bad, Rindby Strand and Sønderho), so biking on Fanø is safe – for both children and adults. Fanø has a length of approximately 15 km and measures 5 km at the widest point, so the distances are short. A bike is the ideal transportation for getting around the island.

Activities for children

On Fanø, we are thrilled about the many families with children that choose to holiday on Fanø. The beach and nature areas with bike and hiking paths are naturally some the most important features, but we also offer other activities that are popular with families.

Minigolf is a popular activity for the whole family. There are three minigolf courses on the island. In Rindby, the minigolf courses are located by Feldberg Familie Camping and Rødgaard Camping. At Fanø Bad, the course is located right by the golf course.

Club Fanø is an activity centre located by Rødgaard Camping in Rindby. Here, you can make your own candles, build kites, play Bubble Ball and much more. Club Fanø additionally arranges child-friendly excursions such as seal safari and crab hunts.

Football golf: Just behind Feldberg Familie Camping, Fanø Football Golf is located. This is a game for the whole family.

Indoor playground: In connection to Rødgaard Camping lies an indoor playground that is especially popular with the smaller children. Strandskaden is a nature and culture interpreter on Fanø that offers guided tours, many of which are child-friendly such as seal safari and Wadden Sea walks for children. The rigging loft: At Fanø Shipping and Costume Collection, a workshop has been established where a real mariner teaches children to work with rope. The children get to make their own piece of craftsmanship. When a lifesaver hangs on the wall of the museum, it means the mariner is working in his workshop.

Beach volleyball: On the beach at Fanø Bad, the sports store, nyform, has created a small sports area with two beach volleyball courts, a beach tennis court and a beach football court. Using the facilities is free of charge, but you have to bring your own equipment. The forest playground: This is one of the most popular places for children and their families. See page 24 for more information. Torp Plantage, the plantation: is also an exciting place to play. The quiet forest is located in the holiday home area between Fanø Bad and Rindby Strand. There are many rabbits in the plantation. The Mountains on Fanø: Treasure hunting on Fanø? When you have discovered and climbed the five highest mountains on Fanø, Fanø Tourist Office has a prize for all mountain climbers. For more information, see page 24.

Art, crafts and design on Fanø During the last 100 years or so – right up until today, Fanø has experienced a vast influx of artists who more or less settled here. The environment, the landscapes and the nice light have attracted painters in particular. Especially in Sønderho, there were times when you could consider the place a complete colony of painters – similar to Skagen, the northernmost town of Jutland. Artists on Fanø included Julius Exner, Carl Johan Forsberg, Johan Rohde, August Wilckens, Reinhard Heinemann and August Dohm whose works are displayed at Fanø Art Museum. This attraction of artists is now bigger than ever, which means that Fanø today still has a rather large colony of artists. Among the current artists, the island has Margit Enggård, Marie Louise Exner, Finn Hjortskov-Jensen and Johnny Madsen. In 1992, it became possible to establish Fanø Art Museum in ’Kromanns House’. The house was previously a merchant’s building and factory. The front shop from 1868 has been restored and converted – today it functions as the museum’s entry hall. The permanent exhibition – still active to this day – has been active since the mid-19th century. The varying exhibitions also have Fanø and the Wadden Sea as a general theme. In 2018, we have the following exhibitions:

Fanø also has many designers and craft artists. They find inspiration in Fanø’s nature. There is also an obvious international orientation. Some of the most known are Gitta Foldberg, Jane Heinemann and Christel Seyfarth. A wide spectre of crafts is represented on the island – anything from knit and clothes to jewelry and candles. Most workshops are located in Nordby and Sønderho, but, in Rindby, the candle workshop (Club Fanø) and ‘Kunstladen’ (meaning ‘the art barn’) also offer exciting products. There are other festivals on Fanø that focuses on art and culture. The two most known are the Rock Festival ”Fanø Vesterland” wich takes place in May and the Fanø International Knit Festival in September, also, a group of local artists host and art fetival at the end of May.

Food on Fanø

On Fanø you can find culinary experiences for everyone. From fast food to gourmet. There are four restaurants on Fanø that are on the White Guide’s list of the best restaurants in Denmark. Fanø Tourist Office publishes a list of restaurants and opening hours every month. Local produce Fanø is home to various producers of quality foods. They are small-time producers that enjoy great recognition in both Denmark and abroad. Among the most known products, we have the butcher Slagter Christiansen’s smoked hams and sausages, the beer from the local brewery Fanø Bryghus and specialties from Rudbecks Ost & Deli. Local dishes Bakskuld is a salted and smoked flatfish – usually dab, but flounder and plaice are also used – which is fried in a pan and served with rye bread and coffee punch (coffee with schnapps). In the past, it could also be served with a dollop of rice pudding. Bakskuld is served in most restaurants on Fanø.

Open-faced Fanoe sandwiches (Fanøsmørrebrød) These are made of thin slices of bread covered with six different kinds of cold cuts. Each slice is cut into three pieces and the sandwiches are laid on a plate in a layer cake pattern consisting of three layers. There are differences in how they are made in Nordby and Sønderho. In Sønderho there are always sausages and salted meat, cheese and chopped eggs and homemade meatballs. Nature’s table is set There are plenty of possibilities for exploring the nature and gathering your own wild-growing produce. First and foremost, there are obviously mussels and oysters which can be collected off the easternmost coast of Fanø. Salicornia, or marsh samphire, is a tasty and salty vegetable used as garnish for fish or in a salad. The plant is also found on the east coast and on the beach in Sønderho. In the dune heaths and in the plantations in autumn, you will find a variety of berries and mushrooms. Beware that not all mushrooms are edible. Bring a guide or a guidebook, and if you are in doubt, don’t eat it!

Fanø stories

Fanø is an island with an exciting history and many stories. They are definitely not all completely true, but what does that matter, if the story is good. The myth of the name Fanø There once were two skippers who had been at service to the jötnar Fenja and Menja. As a reward, they were each given a salt mill, after which they sailed off in the two ships that were named after the jötnar. The two salt mills were on board, and the skippers sold their salt wherever they went. Unfortunately, both ships went down in a storm – one at a sandbank which was thereafter called Menjø (Mandø), the other at a sandbank called Fenjø (Fanø). At the shipwreck, large amounts of salt flooded out, which is why the waters surrounding Fanø and Mandø are saltier than other oceans. The 1741 buy-out Until 1741, Fanø belonged to the Danish Crown. Fanø was administered from Ribe which, at the time, was an important commercial centre and had monopoly on trade. The inhabitants of Fanø were skilled fishermen, but all fish export had to go through Ribe to be declared. Therefore, there was a strong desire to buy out the island and thus be freed from the ties to Ribe. After an unsuccessful attempt to buy out the island in 1719, another chance arose in 1741, when King Christian VI wished to sell off his possessions to be able to finance various castle building projects. Together, the

people from Nordby and Sønderho went to Ribe where the auction took place on July 10, 1741. There are many stories about the tricks that were put into operation to secure the purchase. In the end, the people of Fanø succeeded in buying the island and boost the development that led Fanø to become a maritime island of great significance.

Fannik and Sønderhoning From olden times, Fanø has been divided into two territories: The northern part called Fanø and the southern part called Sønderho. There are many tales of the rivalry between “the two islands”. One of the consequences has been that you don’t really have a common denominator for people who live on Fanø. If you live in Nordby, you’re a fannik, and if you live in Sønderho, you’re a sønderhoning. A fannik is also called gøjer, while a sønderhoning is called a japper. So, what is a person (often from Copenhagen) who owns a cottage in Sønderho called? A københoning naturally.

The maritime era

The tiny sandy island on the west coast was once a maritime “superpower” – even with the same population size as we have today. Fanø has always been a place for sailors. In the 1500s, a small fishing village was located at ‘Odden’, today known as Nordby. Later, the sailors went to other places to seek employment on larger fishing boats and merchant ships. They went out sailing on foreign seas, thus gaining experience and expertise in sailing the large oceans. In the 1760s, the people of Fanø started their own shipping companies and started building ships on Fanø. It was a difficult task as they had to import all wood from the mainland. The shipyards – in both Nordby and Sønderho – were situated directly on the beach, near the deep waters. It isn’t difficult to imagine the life and activity this brought to the island. The 1850s were the golden age of shipbuilding on Fanø. There were nine shipyards, and all together they employed 100 workers and a number of sub-contractors. From 1768 to 1896, a total of 1100 ships were built on Fanø – in the beginning a lot of small ships, but gradually they became bigger. From the mid-1860s, the local shipyards were no longer able to meet the demands. At

the same time, the harbour in Sønderho was beginning to have problems with silting. In the 1880s, the shipping companies went from wooden ships to iron and steel ships, and the last Fanø ship was built in 1896. The size of the ship also made it impossible to use Fanø as harbour. Sailing ships were also replaced by steam ships, and by 1919, all shipping companies had moved to other harbours. The maritime era brought wealth and inspiration from other parts of the world to Fanø. The many beautiful mansions built by captains are still there to remind us of this.

The Staffordshire porcelain dogs on Fanø In many of the windows here on Fanø, you will see the two porcelain dogs. During the period 1860-1900, the dogs were the souvenir to bring back home from England. And it was expected that every sailor brought home at least one pair. The dogs always come as a pair, looking towards each other. Traditionally, they symbolize loyalty and security. When they look out of the window, the man of the house is at sea; when they look into the house, he is at home. At the harbor front in Nordby, you’ll find a sculpture with the pair of dogs – made by the artist Poul Isbak.

The Atlantic Wall on Fanø

Grey bunkers can still be seen in many dunes around Fanø. These are a remnant of the Atlantic Wall, which was a huge defensive system stretching from northern Norway to Spain. This fortification of the coast was started by the Germans during WWII, aiming to prevent an invasion from the Western allies. Denmark was occupied by the German forces from 9th April 1940 until 5th of May 1945 (Bornholm was freed in 1946). The occupation took place without any major acts of war in the country, and was mainly a step in the plan towards conquering the strategically important Norway as well as to control the sail routes going into the Baltic Sea. The establishment of the enormous defensive system along the entirety of Europe’s coast was sped up in order to prevent the coming invasion from allied troops (the UK, Canada and the US). In Denmark this system was especially focused around Hanstholm and Esbjerg as these were considered the most strategically important areas to defend. As a result a larger number of defensive buildings and measurements were constructed around these harbours. Due to Fanø’s placement at the entrance water way to Esbjerg harbour, around 300 bunkers, concrete roads, canons, railroads (?), anti-armoured vehicle trenches, personnel buildings and more were established. These were mainly placed on the northern and middle part of the island. The fortress strategy consisted of a larger amount of coastal- and air batteries from Pælebjerg (the Pælebjerg position) towards north at the Western Sea-battery and the Grådyb-battery, as well as the Anti-marine Battery North position (located north of Nordby). In addition to this, coastal defence

positions, radar stations and barracks for the troops were built to the west. Furthermore, some 49000 mines as well as large marine minefields were laid out to the west. The German occupational force on Fanø consisted of around 2300 soldiers and of 1275 Danish workers who aided in building the bunkers. Denmark and Fanø remained a relatively peaceful place to be during the entire war. However, the anti-air batteries whose intended use were to fire at enemy air crafts, came into use multiple times. One such notable time was on the 27th of August 1944 during a day-attack on the military airport by Esbjerg. On this day, 5 allied aircrafts were shot down. Many of the Atlantic Wall bunkers have been partly or wholly hidden under the sand today, and have as such became part of the dune landscape. A few of the bunkers in the area between Rindby Strand and Sønderho are still fully exposed and free from the dunes on the beach and can be observed up close. The best place to get up close to the bunkers is at the Fanø North position. This is also where the organisation ”Fanø in the Atlantic Wall” has their weekly tours around the bunkers. Please be aware that the area is privately owned and that the position is located in a fragile natural area, therefore we kindly ask that respect is given to these facts. Riding a bike or walking out there on the gravel road, Vesternasen, is entirely possible and recommended! During the spring/summer of 2018 the ”Fanø in the Atlantic Wall” organisation will open a new exhibition under the fire station on Stadionvej in Nordby. Guests can visit the exhibition during guided tours and when making an appointment.
