The Funen Village - Open Air Museum

All the buildings date from the 18th and 19th centuries and originally stood in different parts of Funen. Most are half-timbered and have thatched roofs. The village is surrounded by fields and gardens. In the stables, fields and pastures, you can meet the village animals and learn more about rural life and agricultural work in the past.

An experience for the whole family

The Funen Village has something for all the family, young and old. Children and young people under 18 don't have to pay admission, so get going! Throughout the season you can enjoy activities such as horse-drawn carriage rides, various village tales, travelling theatre and many other exciting activities. You can also learn how to milk cows, make clothes from flax, how honey is made in the village and much more. You can always find the whole year's programme here: www.denfynskelandsby.dk, so you can choose the activities you want to experience.

History programmes and summer evenings

When you visit the Funen Village, you can listen to stories told by the volunteers. They perform the roles of cooks, coachmen, field workers, candle drippers, goose maidens and other village residents. As you listen to the stories, you can watch the characters as they go about their daily chores. This creates a unique and special atmosphere for you to experience what it was like to live in the 18th century. In addition to the many volunteers and activities, the Funen Village is open every Thursday in July, where you can enjoy the summer atmosphere of the village.
