    Hans Christian Andersens Childhood Home image
    Andersen recalled his childhood with nostalgic pleasure. From the age of two until he was 14, he grew up in a poor – but also loving – home which provided him with inspiration for many of his fairytales. Come and sense the really special atmosphere of the poet’s spirit in the childhood home. Take a look too at the tiny, fairytale garden. See more..

    Excellent view. Surpassing anything in a 50km radius. The hip place is the place to be seen and to absorb the view of 65 churches and 35 Islands. My kid and I took the stairs 3 times up and down, that is how much we enjoyed it. See more..
