We can surely recommend a few hours at Kurbad Thy where yoy can relax in a spa and enjoy all kinds of hot baths both inside and outside. The facilities are great and the staff very kind and helpful. You can enjoy a lot more than we actually did if you intend to do so

This beautiful small church is located way out of the beaten path, but a natural attraction to see when visiting the National Park of Thy. It is amazing to find this well preserved church, which is supposedly the next smallest parish in Denmark based on the population. In terms of physical size, it is also the smallest medieval church in Denmark. My husband, whose ancestors come from the Thy area, loves to show this church to friends because of its unique location, and the extraordinary well preserved exterior and interior. It is still a source of endless wonder for me, how these Danish village churches are always open to the public, based on trust in the innate goodness of men.
3. Jutland Memorial Park

This very significant site of reconciliation is unique in the world, in that it commemorates the dead of two World War One navies, the British Royal Navy Grand Fleet and the Imperial German High Seas Fleet at the Battle of Jutland. Unusually there are no winners or losers in this memorial park where the design seeks to explain in a neutral fashion the terrible scale of the losses. 25 ships out of 251 were sunk with 8,645 men on both sides lost in the space of just 12 hours, 31st May to 1st June 1916. The park occupies a large area of attractive coast, roughly about three football pitches in area with 26 named granite stones each up to 3½ metres high numbering the losses from each ship. The ghostly figures surrounding each stone represent each life lost, no uniform or colour to distract the view. Highly recommended for a contemplation visit. The Battle of Jutland Memorial Park is open 24 hours every day and is free to enter.

Tijdens onze Denemarken reis zijn we hier langs gegaan met als doel het Bonbonmuseum dat in 2009 geopend is. Hier worden op traditionele Deense wijze nog snoep gemaakt en verkocht en heel veel verschillende smaken. Al deze smaken mag je proeven, wat het natuurlijk extra leuk maakt!
Aanvullend hierop is een klein museumpje met heel veel aanverwante snoepartikelen, heel erg leuk om te zien. We zijn door de eigenaar gastvrij ontvangen en hebben goedkoop van een enorm stuk taart met koffie zitten genieten. Prima plek voor een tussenstop dus, aanrader!
5. Agger Kirke

When exploring the Danish countryside, you can see from afar, these small red-roofed and whitewashed churches dotting the landscape. When in the fishing village of Agger, this simple but beautiful church located in the town center deserves a few minutes of your time. The exterior of the building is well kept as well as the garden and cemetery around it. The interior is simple and minimal in its presentation providing a peaceful and tranquil ambience. Take also note of the a cluster of small pieces of sculpture outside the entrance of the church by the road.

7. Sea War Museum Jutland

This museum is a labour of love curated and built by Danish diver and historian, Gert Norman Andersen. It was Andersen who discovered the wreck of U-20, the submarine that sunk the RMS Lusitania in May 1915. As owner of a large subsea contracting business, Andersen has been able to finance numerous expeditions to the Battle of Jutland wreck sites and has amassed a unique collection of artifacts which are now displayed in the museum’s large timber sheds. Whether you're a WW1 buff or just happen to be in the area, this museum is well worth a visit.

This is one of the remarkable landmarks of the National Park of Thy. If you can walk up the 133 steps to the top, you will be rewarded by a 360 degree view of the Thy landscape and the sea. In the ground floor, there is a small exhibit, where the visitor can read about the history of this still functioning lighthouse. There is a fee of 10 dkr. which the visitor is requested to put in a box hanging on the wall of the entrance.

Visited Agger and walked along the beach. Wonderful views and beautiful white sand. You can walk along the piers. The sea can be quite vicious but well worth going to look.
