Things to do in Skagen, Jutland: The Best Museums

February 12, 2022 Fernanda Pittenger

A large, busy harbor doesn’t dampen the charm of Skagen’s older neighborhoods, which offer distinctive yellow houses, great museums, ceramic and glass art galleries, and bike rental outlets. Harbourside restaurants serve fish fresh off the boats. If you’re used to Caribbean beaches, this will take some getting used to, but we bet Skagen’s craggy charms will win you over.

If you're the least interested in paintings or the life of artists, do go here. The house of Anna and Michael Ancher is crammed with paintings, atmosphere and so many stories.

We visited the Skagens Museum during a Viking cruise excursion and learned so much about the artists and history of the area while listening to the guide describe the beautiful works of art. Summer evening on Skagen Sanderstrand, 1893, was my favorite painting.

Reviewed By lilletraveler - Assens, Denmark

It is a very unique museum, I loved it. The bears are really cute and I think all children and the adults who never forgot the child inside them should go and visit this museum. You can buy also really cool souvenirs and the lady behind the reception was very kind and helpful. Wish I found out earlier about this museum.
