We spent a brilliant few hours here and I'd highly recommend it, especially if you have children the same age as ours (8 to 13). The museum itself is really well done and very informative, including plenty of hands-on elements. Upstairs are clothes the children can try on, and a great view. We hired a couple of hammers and chisels and descended into the quarry to go fossil hunting. It's really surreal, far away the machines are working, still mining the limestone, but where we were sent, down near the turquoise pools, it's really calm and almost quiet. We didn't find anything spectacular (compared to the stuff on display at the top), but every single piece of rock was cool, mostly it was fossilised Coral, but it's impressive. Needless to say, some pieces came home with us. You should also try the local Faxe Kondi soft drink whilst you're in the area.

The Museum itself is pretty small and dogs are not allowed inside. But they're allowed in the quarry. Just make sure dogs and children stay close to you as the trucks are driving at a high speed. You can take a walk through the limestone quarry or borrow a hammer and chisel to dig for fossils yourself. It's pretty cheap to borrow the utensils but our hammer was broken and the head kept falling of so it wasn't of any use. You don't really need the utensils anyway, just look through the rumble on the sides and you should find at least some corrals. Also don't dress in your best clothes since you will get pretty dirty and watch out for the trucks and other vehicles. They're driving at a pretty high speed for a place where pedestrians might be walking. But don't jump to the side to get out of their way, you might just loose a shoe in the wet muddy limestone.

This museum isn’t really worth visiting. It’s got some nice information but much of it isn’t great for English speaking visitors. The ticket was on the pricier side. I recommend visiting the quarry and skipping this part.

The museum is great! I spent hours here! It’s very informative and the quarry rocks. Annette from the gift shop was super helpful and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend bringing your kids for a full day of fun!

Absolutely loved the place! By the time we visited, there was an exhibition about the dinosaurs' ancestors. Although small, it was amazing to see! After that, we went down the mine and looked for fossils. Although we didn't find a shark tooth, we found a lot of fossilized corals (since it was the bottom of the ocean around 60 million years ago!). The quarry is free to enter at any time of the day. You can rent tools from the museum though for a small fee (25 dkk?). Wear something appropriate if you want to mine of course!

The fact that you can walk into the limestone quarry and find your own fossils such as, shark teeth, starfish and other old creatures alike, and you can bring them home with you if you want. I found a piece of a coral that I brought home with me.

Huge limestone quarry with an emerald blue lake. Great location to go on a sunny day.

(Translated by Google) I swim there all year round. It is absolutely fantastic, although there is a very varied beach which is completely its own. (Original) Jeg bader året rundt der. Det er hel fantastisk skønt der med meget varieret strand som er helt sin egen.

(Translated by Google) Super nice bathing beach with nice bathing bridge and nice sandy beach. The water is clean and there are toilets and parking (Original) Super lækker badestrand med fin badebro og lækkert sandstrand. Vandet er rent og der er toiletter og parkering

(Translated by Google) Fine sandy beach with almost no stones on the edge. The water is still shallow and therefore small child friendly. There is a jetty that extends far enough out to allow you to jump into the water, which is still not too deep. There is a large parking lot with a temporary toilet, but no other infrastructure. The beach is not guarded. (Original) Feiner Sandstrand fast ohne Steine am Uferrand. Das Wasser ist weit hinaus noch flach und dadurch kleinkindfreundlich. Es gibt einen Steg, der weit genug hinaus reicht, um ins immer noch nicht allzu tiefe Wasser springen zu können. Es gibt einen großen Parkplatz mit einer Behelfstoilette, allerdings sonst keinerlei Infrastruktur. Der Strand wird nicht bewacht.

(Translated by Google) Fantastic place with a nice jetty, and a view also a good place to swim... (Original) Fantastisk sted med flot badebro, og udsigt også et godt sted at bade...

(Translated by Google) Summer or winter, always a nice, wonderful place to go. (Original) Sommer eller vinter altid et rart skønt sted at komme hen.

(Translated by Google) There is a lot of sand. (Original) Der er meget sand.

Fun to take a picture but there is not much to else to see. This could be marketed a lot better to tourists.

nice old mill, well preserved and nice condition. From 1472

Great place

(Translated by Google) A lonely mill has not seen it yet, it's a shame you can't follow the course of the stream nearby as it's partly private. (Original) En ensom mølle har ikke set den endnu, synd man ikke kan følge forløbet af åen i nærheden da den et delvist privat.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful old mill that could be in a painting. Very nice surroundings, although the road is not far away you feel like you are in the country. At the back there is a beautiful yard with a pond and a small stand with potatoes, honey and flower seeds. As far as I understand, you can also book guided tours, but we didn't have one. Recommended for a short trip or as a stopover on the way through. (Original) Eine wunderschöne alte Mühle, die auf einem Gemälde sein könnte. Sehr schöne Umgebung, obwohl die Straße nicht weit entfernt ist fühlt man sich wie auf dem Land. Hinten dran ist ein schöner Hof mit Teich und ein kleiner Stand mit Kartoffeln, Honig und Blumensamen. Soweit ich das verstanden habe kann man auch Führungen buchen, wir hatten aber keine. Für einen kleinen Ausflug oder als Zwischenziel auf der Durchreise zu empfehlen.

(Translated by Google) Beautifully situated old mill by Faxe Å. A little further down the road is the mill lake and the water mill (Original) Smukt beliggende gammel mølle ved Faxe Å. Lidt længere ude ad vejen ligger møllesøen og vandmøllen

(Translated by Google) Incredibly beautiful and well maintained. Unfortunately very cold, but we will definitely come again in the spring. (Original) Utrolig flot og velholdt. Desværre mega koldt, men vi kommer helt sikkert igen til foråret.

(Translated by Google) Fine church with frescoes and architectural remains from the Romanesque church. Should get 4½ stars. (Original) Fin kirke med kalkmalerier og arkitekturrester fra den romanske kirke. Burde få 4½ stjerne.

(Translated by Google) Really friendly priest, very empathetic, and sweet church servant who gave coffee to early arrivals. The reason for attendance, however, was not so funny. (Original) Virkelig venlig præst, meget indlevende, og sød kirketjener som gav kaffe til for tidligt fremmødte. Grunden til fremmøde, var dog ikke så sjov.

(Translated by Google) Fine frescoes. And not least, the church was open on a Saturday morning (Original) Fine kalkmalerier. Og ikke mindst var kirken åben en lørdag formiddag

(Translated by Google) Nice church, but a bit tame in the interior (Original) Fin kirke, men lidt tam i indretningen

(Translated by Google) Good, big church to sing in, but it drafts from the old windows up by the altar, and it's not nice. (Original) God, stor kirke at synge i, men der trækker fra de gamle vinduer oppe ved altertavlen, og det er ikke rart.

(Translated by Google) The priest was really good, but it is a shame that the church has not renovated there altar and windows, therefore only three stars (Original) Præsten var rigtig god, men det er synd at kirken ikke har renoveret der alter og vinduer, derfor kun tre stjerner

(Translated by Google) It was a perfect funeral, missing just one melody by Kim Larsen (Original) Det var en perfekt bisættelse, der manglede bare én melodi af Kim Larsen

You can easily spend some hours in this area

(Translated by Google) A beautiful park with large trees, fruit trees and perennial beds. Vemmetofte Kloster is beautifully situated within the moat. A short walk into the woods leads to a beautiful cemetery and chapel. (Original) En smuk park med store træer, frugttræer og staudebede. Vemmetofte Kloster ligger dejligt inden for voldgraven. En kort gåtur ind i skoven fører til en smuk kirkegård og et kapel.

(Translated by Google) Vemmetofte Kloster oozes atmosphere - a historical pocket of time, where the sounds of the busy men and women of yesteryear and the hooves of horses can still be felt in the courtyards and the impressive stable buildings on the site. (Original) Vemmetofte Kloster emmer af atmosfære - en historisk tidslomme, hvor lydende af fordums travle karle og piger og hestehove stadigvæk fornemmes i gårdrummene og de imponerende staldbygninger på stedet.

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful old buildings and a beautiful concert with Mogens Dalsgaard. I was a student as kitchen manager here many years ago. Here I could feel the rush of history. At that time there were still four of the noble misses who were registered at Vemmetofte Noble virgin convent, as I believe it was called before it was rebuilt in the 70s And opened to other than just the noble maidens. There is a beautiful park which is a great sensory experience to walk in. It is still one of the most beautiful places and definitely worth a visit. (Original) En af de smukkeste gamle bygninger og en smuk koncert med Mogens Dalsgaard. Jeg var elev som køkkenleder her for mange år siden. Her kunne jeg mærke historiens vingesus. Dengang boede der stadig fire af de adelige frøkener, som var indskrevet på Vemmetofte Adelige jomfrukloster som jeg mener det blev kaldt inden det blev bygget om først i 70`erne Og åbnet for andre end lige de adelige jomfruer. Der findes en smuk park, som er en stor sanse oplevelse, at gå i. Det er stadig et af de smukkeste steder og absolut et besøg værd.

(Translated by Google) A church that is inside the monastery so the ceiling is not that high, but the acoustics were ok. We went to the opera and it was a great performance, the singers were really good, especially Heidi Korgaard sang beautiful arias (Original) En kirke der er inde i klosteret så der er ikke så højt til loftet, men akustikken var ok. Vi var til opera og det var en flot opførelse sangerne var rigtig gode især Heidi Korgaard sang flotte arier

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful park and buildings. (Original) Meget smuk park og bygninger.

(Translated by Google) Exciting place. (Original) Spændende sted.

Next to the harbor there is a very nice restaurant called Ko & Co, which is worth a visit if you are on the way from Rødby towards the Copenhagen area and need a dinner break.

It's been awhile since I have been to beach this beach I will never forget. I couldn't resist I jumped on the water removing all clothes. I swimmed naked. Wow I couldn't I magine it was me. 👌😍🙄💕

Nice and cozy area, with newly renovated docks.

Super duber

Cool place to hang around.

Ok

Nice

Probably a great place to go as a group and compete against eachother and then have a BBQ. But the park and mini town itself is not exactly big, and there's not a whole lot for kids to do, other than being told not to climb the houses. Anyway the price is good and for the history curious like me it can be quite interesting.

It’s more for kids than grownup. But its a nice place with a nice mini golf

OKAY

(Translated by Google) Mrs Else Petersen started Faxe Ladeplads Miniby in 1997 An impressive piece of craftsmanship that has gone into building all the buildings on a scale of 1:10, the building parts are made by them themselves, bricks, roof tiles are made from clay, dried and fired in a kiln. It takes from 1-4 years to make a building, they have ideas and the opportunity to expand in the next several years. (Original) Fru Else Petersen opstartede Faxe Ladeplads Miniby i 1997 Et imponerende stykke håndværk, der er lagt i at bygge alle de bygninger i en skala 1:10, byggedelene laver de selv, mursten, tagsten bliver lavet af ler, tørret og brændt i en ovn. Det tager fra 1-4 år at lave en bygning, de har idéer og mulighed for at kunne udbygge i de næste mange år.

(Translated by Google) The operators are very, very nice. The mini city and the mini golf courses were lovingly constructed. Unfortunately, the lanes were all heavily contaminated by the poplar trees, which made it impossible to play properly. The tracks are not necessarily at beginner level. All in all, a nice park at moderate prices where you can treat yourself to an ice cream (Original) Die Betreiber sind sehr sehr nett. Die Mini Stadt und die Minigolf Bahnen waren liebevoll aufgebaut. Leider waren die Bahnen alle stark durch die Pappeln verschmutzt was ein vernünftiges Spielen unmöglich machte. Die Bahnen sind nicht unbedingt auf Anfängerniveau. Alles in allem ein schöner Park zu moderaten Preisen wo man sich auch mal ein Eis gönnen kann

(Translated by Google) Incredibly exciting and complete mini city. Very nice models and afterwards you can drive through the city and see many of the buildings in life size. Also possible to see the workshop. In the park it is possible to buy refreshments. There is also a nice mini golf course. A nice little stop on the road. (Original) Utrolig spændende og gennemført miniby. Meget fine modeller og bagefter kan man køre gennem byen og gense mange af bygningerne i naturlig størrelse. Også muligt at se værkstedet. I parken er det muligt at købe en forfriskning. Der er også en nydelig minigolfbane. Et fint lille stop på vejen.

(Translated by Google) A wonderful little place with an 18-hole mini-golf course and a nice little mini-town. Good conditions. Must eat brought food there, against the purchase of snacks.... nice place for a family fun day (Original) Et skønt lille sted med en 18 hullers mini-golf bane og en fin lille miniby. Gode forhold.

Beautiful Church, small but with good atmosphere.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful church which is unfortunately closed at the moment. Very nice and well-kept cemetery with very special granite benches. (Original) En smuk kirke som desværre er lukket i øjeblikket. Meget flot og velholdt kirkegård med meget specielle granitbænke.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful newer red stone church. (Original) Flot nyere rødstens kirke.

(Translated by Google) A bit lacking is a priest who is more alive and steps beyond the book... (Original) Mangler lidt en præst der er mere levende og træder ud over bogen...

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful and well-kept cemetery and nice church 😊 . (Original) Meget smuk og velholdt kirkegård og flot kirke 😊 .
