Attractions


Skagen offers scenery, art and culture - fantastic experiences at all times of the year - and plenty of experiences for more than just a single holiday.

Attractions

Attractions include all the places, features and events that are worth going to see or try out – and these can be places you pay an admission to get into, but equally all the free fun to be had in the countryside.



The sea, the light, the air, the sand – Skagen and the elements seem to be inseparable.

Throughout time the countryside and the environment in Skagen have affected and impressed nearly everyone who has made their way here – including those who were shipwrecked, artists or summer visitors.

At the town’s many museums and attractions you can learn all about the history of art and culture in Skagen and gain a deeper insight into the background to Skagen’s special atmosphere.
 


Art and culture

Art and culture are associated with Skagen, the museums dominating the picture for the most part.

This is understandable, of course, but if you come to Skagen you will often know that this picture is too one-sided. Many exciting things are happening in the whole of the Skagen area on the cultural front, not least in the area of handicrafts and in the galleries.
