In the History Centre Dybbol Banke you step directly into the events of the dramatic war of 1864. You become be part of the drama and you will learn more about one of the most important battles in the Danish history. Experience history with all your senses: When you enter the territory, you will hear how the thunder of cannons is blended with the shouting and crying of injured soldiers. Go on your journey of exploration and find out, how a correct redoubt is built. Look into the barracks in the "soldiers' town" behind the front where the young and tired soldiers try to get some rest between the bloody battles. The war 1864 resulted in the disappearance of the multinational Danish nation state. Denmark developed into a national small state and got a part of Southern Jutland in form of Schleswig back. Prussia grew into the expanding German Empire which later sank and developed then into the Federal Republic Germany we know today. Therefore, the war in Dybbol is a central landmark in the European history. If you are ready to occupy the History Centre, then we are ready to offer you a very special adventure. Fascinating, entertaining, but also really serious.
On holiday near Sønderborg, we thought we would pay a visit here based on the mostly positive reviews on Trip Advisor. Prior to our visit, I knew nothing at all about the border struggles between Denmark and Prussia and to be honest wasn't too sure if a museum focusing on a war we hadn't heard of would interest my two kids, aged 7 and 10. I'm very glad to say that we all loved it. The videos explained clearly what had happened leading up to the 1864 battle and how the battle itself unfolded. The film could be watched in Danish, German or English. Then the outdoor area was our favourite part, showing some of the weapons that would have been used in the battle, what life for a soldier would have been like, what they would have eaten (I recommend you make a pancake, they are delicious!). My kids loved it, as did I. We all learnt a lot about a really interesting and significant battle in European history and it was a really engaging day for all the family. The staff are all extremely friendly and informative and can converse with the greatest of ease in English and German (as well as Danish of course!)
