Things to do in Zealand

Bryghuset Møn
There’s a café inside Luffes Gård courtyard, serving burgers, omelettes, quiches and sandwiches, and a few fishy and steaky mains at night, but the chief draw is beer brewed in Stege’s microbrewery. Go right through the courtyard to admire its shining copper vats.

GeoCenter Møns Klint
The brand-new high-tech GeoCenter Møns Klint, located at Store Klint, is a place of wonders. Imaginative displays (in Danish, German and English) explain how the cliffs were formed, show off an orderly fossil collection and bring alien-looking Cretaceous sea creatures to life. Kids absolutely love the inventive hands-on nature centre. There are also roaming experts to answer any questions. Upstairs is a flash-looking café, selling coffee, cakes and open sandwiches. Access for people in wheelchairs is excellent.

Elmelunde Kirke
One of Denmark’s oldest stone churches, Elmelunde Kirke dates back to 1080. The vaults were painted by the ‘Elmelunde master’. His awesome frescoes span everything from the Creation to Christ in judgement. There’s a splendid serpent in the Garden of Eden, with a snakelike body and human head; Herod’s soldiers dressed in medieval armour; a devil leading the damned into the monstrous mouth of hell; and several hunting scenes, reminders of the shortness of human life. Go and gape. There’s a service held each Sunday, after which the church is closed.
