Top 10 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Odense, Funen and Islands

January 5, 2022 Kandra Bartel

The quirky, millennium-old capital of Fyn (or Funen), Odense is populated by street corner sculptures of trolls and monster-footed benches. Hans Christian Andersen's birthplace is crammed with fairytale-related attractions. A plethora of castles awaits in the surrounding countryside, including the 1554 Egeskov Castle with its dramatic moat, 18 miles away. Bike or walk to visit manatees at the zoo, open-air museums, the impressive cathedral, the art cinema and bustling cafés, or see the town by riverboat.

We visited a while ago when staying with friends in the city. We're coming back later this year and my daughter has already asked to come again. We enjoyed the vintage trains, and the ride on the minature railway. A great day out, and fantastic value for money.

The Tinderbox (Fyrtoejet)

Will-o’-the-wisps. Goblins. Elves. Bone-horses and talking lizards. Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale The Elf Mound is full of magical creatures. At The Tinder-Box Cultural House for Children’s exhibition at Møntergarden, you become part of the story. Step inside the mound and discover gnarled tree roots, fire under the pots and mountain caves to sleep in, as well as weird and wonderful costumes. Elf shops entice, and board games stand ready. You’re allowed to touch everything. Listen, play, transform. Let time stand still and spend it with those you love in a whole new world.

The Time Collection

Reviewed By Maikench - Alleroed Municipality, Denmark

Really worth a visit especially for kids. Shows how the Danes lives from 1910 to 1990 and you are allowed to touch and try everything, which makes it really a nice place. On top of this There is a whole section with clothes that you and the kids can try. The kids love this and my daughter of ten didn’t want to leave the museum.
