Il meglio della Fionia

Funen Essentials

Funen features Egeskov Castle, a Renaissance water castle with extensive gardens, and Hesselagergård, Denmark’s oldest Renaissance building. In Odense, the collection focuses on Hans Christian Andersen’s childhood home, the Gothic Saint Canute’s Cathedral, and the half-timbered houses of the Møntergården museum. The island’s history is further showcased through the medieval Nyborg Castle and the Funen Village open-air museum. Modern cultural highlights include the Brandts art center and the Danish Railway Museum, while the Svendborgsund Bridge offers views over the sound.
