Ribe - The Best Small Town
Ribe - the fascinating town in South Jutland, Denmark, with a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Ribe is a fascinating town which has the distinction of being Denmark’s oldest town with well preserved buildings, and a variety of museums, a cathedral and a black friar monastery. Many tourists come to Ribe every year and each visit guarantees an unforgettable experience. Visit Ribe Cathedral with a rich history linked to the Danish kings, museums such as the Art and Viking Museums, the time capsule-style Viking attraction Ribe Viking Centre or plan a guided tour of the city to fit the wishes of your group or family. When the night Watchman makes his tour of the town, follow him as he reminds residents of their approaching bedtime.
Cycle around Ribe and tour the Wadden Sea National Park, one of Denmark’s national parks and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you can catch the biggest oysters in the world, see thousands of harbour seals, gaze in amazement at the migratory starlings fly into the sunset known as Sort Sol (Black Sun), and see the home of hundreds of plants and animals only found in the Park.
