Village of Gedesby

frejatravels's avatarPosted by

The old village of Gedesby used to be the southernmost village in Denmark before the new settlement of Gedser was made. The village doesn’t have a lot of huge sights but it is a nice little place to go and enjoy for a little bit.

At the entrance to the village you see a large old windmill and the central part of the village has old church in addition to several old thatches roof houses spread across the small village.

A bit further down the way is a new development in the form of a summer house area – I guess this collection of summerhouses is what gives enough turnovers for the local grocery shop to actually stay in business in this small town.

There isn’t a lot of great sights but it is worth stopping for a few minutes if you are going to Gedser Odde to see the southernmost point in Denmark since you drive right by the village on the highway just a couple of hundred meters away from the windmill.
