Historical place of Denmark's "great wall" to the former border of Germany

Guided tours in the area of Danevirke is recommended. The wall was build in several historical periods. I 1864 the wall had a minor role for the danish defence. The fieldwork of 1864 has been maintained through a danish/german cooperation. You will have a good...More

Impressive monument in the border zone

Visited with a coach tour, which had pre-arranged an excellent guide to give us the story in English, both inside the museum, and along the ramparts. Good insight into living in a border zone, where the Danish and the German identities rub up against each...More

Danevirke Museum

Thorough and detailed history of events leading up to 1864 BUT only if you speak Danish or German. Lovely situation and a very pleasant restaurant next door!

Small but cheap

The entrance fee is only 3 euro, but the museum is very small, so it's a fair price. The exhibition describes why and how the Danevirke was built. We spent 20 minutes inside. Also take a walk around the remains and reconstructions of Dannevirke near...More

The museum provides a nice overview of the attraction and after that, you can stroll around the fortification wall afterwards. There are some spots where you can still see the actual bricks. Was nominated for the World Cultural Heritage list.
