ABOUT THE PLACE
The Funen Village is an open-air museum that presents a Funen village milieu as it appeared in the time of Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875). The village includes some thirty buildings dating from the 17th to the 19th centuries, all of which were moved to The Funen Village from around Funen and other islands. A visit to the museum is like travelling back to the 19th century. A village milieu has been recreated here comprising half-timbered houses, flower gardens, fences, a village pond and a village street - and all surrounded by cultivated fields. A grazing cow or goat occasionally comes to view, as geese strut about from pond to courtyard. Visitors can follow the farming of the common field in the views between the buildings, observe old Danish livestock breeds, and inspect examples of Funen kitchen and ornamental gardens as well as gardens of cultivated plants and old, local varieties of fruit trees
