In-Depth Information
Cost:
Because peak-season days offer more activities, the cost depends on
the time of year. July-mid-Sept: 125 kr, April-June and mid-Sept-mid-Nov:
100 kr; Jan-March: 50 kr; mid-Nov-Dec: special Christmas-themed events
and prices.
Hours:
Daily July-mid-Sept 10:00-18:00; shorter hours off-season. After
hours, the buildings of the open-air museum are locked, but the peaceful park
is open (tel. 86 12 31 88,

).
Getting There:
Stroll 20 minutes up the canal from downtown, or catch a
bus from near the train station: Bus #3A departs directly across the street from
the station, while others (#4A, #11, #15, and #19) depart across the street from
the Town Hall, on Park Allé.
Eating:
This is a perfect place to enjoy a picnic lunch (bring your own, or
order a lunch packet at the reception desk by the ticket booth)—outdoor and
indoor tables are scattered around the grounds. The only eatery in the park
open year-round is the cheery indoor/outdoor Simonsens Have, an inviting
cafeteria serving affordable light meals (30-kr sandwiches, three
smørrebrød
for 60 kr). In peak season, you'll have many other options, including
pølse
and other snack stands, a café next to the ticket kiosk, and Wineke's Cellar,
an 18th-century public house serving beer, wine, and sandwiches (in the base-
ment of the Mintmaster's Mansion).
