Attraction

Møntergården

In the heart of Odense's historic district is Møntergården – a cultural oasis comprising lovely courtyards and beautiful buildings from the 16th century to the present day.

Three exhibitions promise wonderful experiences

The newest building (2013) houses the “Fyn – midt i verden” (Funen - Centre of the Universe) exhibition, which presents an interpretation of Danish and world history from a Funen perspective. Here, the past is brought into the present with a cornucopia of scenographic effects, lots of sound, light and video clips and an interactive game square.


Falk Gøyes Gård (1646) provides the setting for the “Byens Liv – Odense i Middelalder og renæssance” (Life of the City - Odense in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance) exhibition, and in the almshouses “Pernille Lykkes Boder” (Pernille Lykke’s Dwellings) (1617), you will find interiors from the 17th century and the years from 1935–45 respectively.

Area

Odense

With 200,000 inhabitants, Odense is the largest city on Funen. The city offers many exciting attractions for both children and adults. Experience the atmosphere of the old town that is currently being 'reunited' with the rest of the city center in Th.B. The Thriges Street project, which is expected to be completed by 2020. The old town is also where you find H.C. Andersen Museum, H.C. Andersen's birthplace, the children's culture house Fyrtøy and the town museum Møntergården.


In Odense, about 40% of the hotel rooms are marked with either the Swan or Green Key.
