Travel Guide

Nykøbing Mors is full of unique holiday experiences: oysters, mussels, seal safaris, stunning nature, a relaxed island vibe and a rich town lifestyle.

Nykøbing Mors is the largest town on Mors Island. Come over on your holiday and enjoy the relaxed North Jutlandic atmosphere, beautiful nature, oysters and mussels. The island's location in the Limfjord makes it easy to spend many hours by and in the sea, and its beautiful surroundings will make you want to go exploring on a bike tour of the area.

Nykøbing Mors has always been a lively and significant marketplace, which is partly due to its attractive location. The town, whose name means "the new marketplace", used to be a market and fishing town, but nowadays is more of an industrial town, where businesses such as the Morsø Foundry have been very important for its development. The harbour is now used as a marina, and it also houses the mussel fishermen.

Visit the town's oldest building, Dueholm Kloster (Dueholm Priory), which was founded in 1370 and which today houses the Museum Mors. In keeping with the town's history, you can also visit the Dansk Støberimuseum (Danish Foundry Museum) if you're interested in industrial history and working-class culture. Or why not go on an exotic seal safari and see the many seals living in the Limfjord, or perhaps catch a show at the Limfjordsteatret?

Jesperhus, the largest flower park in the Nordic region, is located just outside Nykøbing Mors. Relax with a film at one of Denmark's oldest cinemas, Bio Mors, which opened back in 1924. If you'd like to see some of the best nature that North Jutland has to offer, rent a bike or put on your hiking shoes and take in the landscape.

Nykøbing Mors is well-known for its oysters and mussels, and if that's what you're interested in, the season start in October is celebrated with a harbour party. If, however, you want to enjoy the water, the summer months are the perfect time for a weekend getaway to Nykøbing Mors.

If you’re looking for a relaxed place to have a holiday, then why not visit Nykøbing Mors.
