Travel Guide

Lemvig

Holidays in this port town mean visits to superb art galleries and museums and a glimpse into the maritime traditions of Denmark’s Jutland Peninsula.

When visiting Lemvig, mix educational attractions with enjoyable outdoor activities for the whole family. The museums and galleries are must-sees in this nearly 800-year-old market town, as is a stroll around the laid-back streets of the Old Town.

Lemvig sits between Limfjord Lake and the ocean, a landscape formed during the Ice Age. Use Lemvig as a base for traveling to towns and villages along the North Sea coastline.

Begin at Lemvig Harbour, where private yachts and fishing trawlers line up along the quays. Narrow streets leading into the town from here have cafés, pubs, restaurants, bookstores and boutiques. Pause to admire the 13th-century Lemvig Church and delve into the town’s past at Lemvig Museum. The coastal road of Strandvejen offers lake views and leads to the Museum of Religious Art, which displays contemporary and modern art with religious contexts.

Amble along the Planetstien walking trail from the town center to Ryletorv. You’ll pass beaches and areas of greenery and see scale models of the planets of the solar system. Another interesting place to visit is Bovbjerg Lighthouse, where views from a lookout deck stretch over the North Sea. Nearby is the Jens Søndergaards Museum, dedicated to the life and work of a late Danish expressionist painter.

The fishing village of Thyborøn has many exciting attractions just a 20-minute drive north by car. Feed fish, pet a shark and stroke a stingray at JyllandsAkvariet aquarium. Run through quicksand, build a dike and handle amphibians at the interactive museum Kystcenteret. The Sea War Museum and Memorial Park for the Battle of Jutland honor a naval battle fought between British and German troops during World War I.

Drive to Lemvig in 2 hours from international airports in Aalborg or Aarhus. Denmark’s reliable network of public buses and trains makes getting here and to neighboring destinations in the Central Denmark Region hassle-free. Holstebro and Ulfborg are other popular towns within the region.

Fik hvad jeg skulle bruge
"Jeg havde booket det billigste værelse til en enkelt overnatning. Værelset var fint og der var de basale nødvendigheder. En ok seng, skab, skrivebord og håndvask. Check in og ud var nemt og der var stille og roligt."
