From the Denmark World / Areas
Skagen
Skagen sits near the far northern tip of Jutland, where a fishing town and exposed coast drew painters in the late nineteenth century. Art and seascape belong together here.
Why go
The Skagen Painters came for the light, fishing life and northern shore. Skagens Museum and the homes connected with Michael and Anna Ancher give their work a local setting. The harbour and the sand-buried church add separate views of the town's maritime and coastal history.
What to look for
Skagens Museum connects the painters' work with the town that inspired it.
The harbour reflects Skagen's long fishing history.
The sand-buried St Lawrence's Church shows the force of shifting dunes.
Useful to know
Pair an art stop with time outdoors to see the light and shore that shaped the paintings.
Allow for exposed conditions around the coast.
