Alfresco Frilandsmuseet Maribo is made up of buildings plucked from elsewhere in Den-
mark, from a farm, fire station and windmill, to a dairy, schoolhouse and smithy. Old-fash-
ioned games are scattered about the gardens - who could resist a round of Poke Out Palle's
Eye? The museum is 1km from Torvet, close to the camping ground.

Beside Maribo's train station, this little museum contains Stone Age arrowheads, Viking
combs, Iron Age glass-bead necklaces, and clothes, toys and furniture. Several rooms ex-
plore the experience of 18th-century Polish immigrants, who settled in the area to work in
the cane fields and sugar refineries. Most of the information is in Danish and German.

The good ship
Anemonen
sails on Maribo's island-dotted lake in summer. Some of the
trips stop at Borgø, which hides the ruins of an 11th-century fortress destroyed by a medi-
eval peasants' uprising. Trips run from the jetty outside the cathedral from May to Septem-
ber, at least once weekly (increasing to four times weekly in July and August). See the
website for the latest sailing schedule.
