Nykøbing Falster Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Nykobing Falster is a Danish city that has it all: Fabulous sights that go back to the Middle Ages, animal parks, nature and a multitude of shops.

When you are on holiday in Nykobing Falster, you can experience new things every day. Let yourself be tempted by the shops in the old market street, look at the animals at Guldborgsund Zoo & Botanical Garden, learn about the history of Denmark at the Middle Ages Centre, and spend the evenings watching theatrical performances and the entertaining Nykobing FalsterCabaret.

Nykobing Falster is without a doubt Lolland-Falster's largest city, in which you will find a vibrant commercial and cultural scene set amongst several theatres, arts centres and hundreds of shops selling everything from old handicrafts to the latest fashions. Treat yourself to some shopping and relax afterwards with a cup of coffee and a delicious lunch at one of Nykobing Falster’s many charming cafés.

Besides culture and shopping, Nykobing Falster also has many interesting sights for you to enjoy during a weekend break. For example, the Guldborgsund Zoo & Botanical Garden is perfect if you are visiting with children, whilst the museum Falsters Minder, which is over 100 years old, gives a fascinating insight into the history of the city. Part of the museum is a traditional grocery shop, which looks exactly the same as it did back in the 50s.

Other fascinating sights are the Gothic Abbey Church and the Nykobing Falster Water Tower, where you can enjoy magnificent views over Guldborgsund at an altitude of 32 metres.

If you need a breather on your city break in Nykobing Falster, why not escape the city and visit Horreby Lyng, which is an idyllic raised marshland. Take binoculars along for a walk on of the many hiking trails of the area, which is a mixture of beautiful forests and lakes with an abundance of wildlife.

‘All roads lead to Rome’ – the same could almost be said for your trip to Nykobing Falster, as the city serves as a gateway to the island of Lolland and is connected with Zealand by bus and the E47 motorway. Nykobing Falster is located 82 miles south-south-west of Copenhagen Airport. Nykobing Falster is furthermore situated on the main line between Copenhagen and Hamburg in Germany, with frequent departures. How you get to Nykobing Falster is all up to you. And if you want to explore the rest of Lolland, you are less than an hour away from attractions like Lalandia and Crocodile Zoo.

So, what are you waiting for? Discover a most beautiful and charming part of Denmark.

"We enjoyed no less than 2 stays with Johnny in February. He was very friendly and accommodating, even gave my son a room on his own.
