Danish cakes are always a dream. The classic for me is the small Danish strawberry cake.

Tirpitz Museum and Bunker

Highlight • Historical Site

The museum was built around the old Tirpitz bunker of the Second World War, which to this day is a sad but historical sign of one of the greatest wars. The bunker construction, consisting of two huge bunkers, was supposed to be built as part of Hitler's Atlantic Wall in its time, but was never completed as the war ended before the planned completion. Therefore they stood as silted up monuments in the rough nature of the Danish North Sea coast until it was decided to use them as a museum.
It has long been possible to visit the historical and interesting Tirpitz bunkers, which are unique testimonies to the horrors that the Second World War brought with it.
However, in 2017 they were rebuilt by the world famous Danish architecture firm BIG, the Bjarke Ingels Group, with the history of the bunker and the nature around it being incorporated into the new design. Therefore, the new museum is made of concrete and iron, like the original bunker, and of glass made of heated sand, such as the one in the dune landscape around the museum. The museum is built into the dunes and has an underground corridor that connects the museum with the southern bunker, which is also used for exhibitions. Beach rye is planted on the sloping roof, so that the museum fits perfectly into the surroundings of West Jutland. Since the reconstruction, the museum has been a shining jewel that is worth a visit both in terms of architecture and content!


As part of the renovation there are 4 large exhibition rooms, all of which are designed to be exciting and interactive. There are no long, boring posters in the museum, but rather a headset for each visitor with which he can explore the museum and choose which exhibits he would like to learn more about. There are both permanent exhibitions and changing special exhibitions, all of which tell stories about the bunker or life on the North Sea coast.

These houses were abandoned when the area was turned into a military area. The houses stand still - but their windows have been covered in black. It gives them a ghostly vibe!

Red Deer Reserve North of Blåvand

Highlight • Natural Monument

Before Vejers turn right towards Grärup and Börsmose. Pass Kärgard towards Filsö and Henne Mölle. Here is the deer reserve in the middle of the military training area of Oksboel. Here you can experience large stocks of deer. On the way between Vejers and Kaergaard Klitplantage they often stand in front of the Graerup Langsö. The reserve stretches over 17,000 ha and houses 1,200 animals, and each summer they multiply with approximately 600 calves. Half of the 17,000 ha are forest, the remainder heath and dunes. Every year, tourists gather here from near and far to witness the extraordinary spectacle, when the red deer undisturbed practice their rutting rituals and try to lure the deer cows with their loud pipes.
