In Østerby Skagen lies Denmark’s coziest Teddy Bear Museum. Here lives all sorts of teddys, some with a historic background and others full of great stories. Common for them all is that they live at Skagen Teddy Bear Museum; here they fish, visit Amalienborg, takes a trip to the circus or the beach.
On Skagen Teddy Bear Museum you can among known, unique and handsewn teddy bears also find the popular German Steiff-teddy bear. The Steiff-teddy bear was introduced on the Leipzig toy fair in 1893, by Margarete and Richard Steiff. Steiff later tried to introduce their teddy bears on the American market without any luck. In 1903 an American representative saw the very same teddy bear, and immediately ordered 3.000. In the first year the first 12.000 teddy bears were sold in the USA. The sales of the teddy bear went crazy, and the teddy bear euphoria was by the press called “The Teddy Bear Craze”.
Today most people have a loving memory with a teddy bear and Skagen Teddy Bear museum is a place that can bring those memories back.

It began here. Young artists travelled to Skagen, got lost in the motifs, created groundbreaking art across art forms, lived in a fascinating and lifelong community and founded Skagens Museum. It's all still here, spread across three museums and scattered throughout the city.
Skagens Museum houses the world's largest collection of the works of the Skagen painters. Anchers Hus was the home where the artist couple Anna and Michael Ancher lived, worked and gathered their artist friends. Drachmann's House was the oasis where the painter and poet Holger Drachmann found inspiration and peace.
In Skagen, you can experience exactly that historical heritage in the centre of a city that lives, works and works in the present.
The artist colony in Skagen was established after Holger Drachmann's first visit to Skagen in 1872. He was fascinated by the frugal, hard-working lives of the local fishermen and their families, and by the vast expanses that surrounded the small, enterprising fishing town. Drachmann's fascination spread to a group of young artists who saw the possibility of finding new motifs that would help them break away from their masters: the Golden Age painters. Because the new generation of artists wanted something different. They wanted to find their own feet. In this way, one of Scandinavia's most famous and recognised artist colonies gradually emerged with names like Michael and Anna Ancher, P.S. Krøyer, Laurits Tuxen, Holger Drachmann, Carl Locher, Thorvald Bindesbøll, Ulrik Plesner, Christian Krohg and Oscar Björck.
Skagens Museum celebrates the contrasts in the history on which the museum is based: The history of the artistic community that sprouted in Skagen from the 1870s. The community of painters, poets, designers, writers, musicians and actors were pioneers in their own time, but posterity has categorised the painters in particular as nice and uncontroversial. Skagens Museum addresses the paradoxes and works between history and the present with a perspective for the future.

The inside of the house still contains the same furniture, as it had back in 1935, when the Ancher-family lived there. Today it is a museum, where you can se the family’s huge collection of their own and others artwork.
The home and artworks in Anchers Hus gives insight in the artist couple and the rest of the painters in Skagen life, both throughout their daily life and festivities. Anchers Hus was often the setting for the artist colonies parties, with the Ancher-couple in the center of attention.
The Ancher-couple bought the house in 1884, after their daughter Helga was born. At the time the house was a long and low construction along Markvej. The house was expanded in 1913 with a studio, which were drawn by the architect Ulrik Plesner. The expansion made the house look considerable in size and reflected the couple's success.
In the big garden, that surrounds Anchers Hus, you will also find Saxilds Gaard, which contains a small exhibition and the museum café “restaurant Baghaven”.

Det Hvide Fyr is a remarkable part of Denmark's lighthouse history, representing a period of technological advancements and maritime innovations. The lighthouse replaced the dilapidated tipping lantern and marked a new era of improved navigation for sailors. Standing at 21 meters, Det Hvide Fyr towered over the landscape, making it a central landmark. Initially constructed from red bricks, it later gained its distinctive white appearance, which was both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
In 1835, the lighthouse underwent a significant upgrade when the coal-based light source was replaced with rapeseed oil and parabolic mirrors, enhancing the light's range and efficiency. Skagen Fyr, also known as Det Grå Fyr, took over the lighthouse function in 1858, leading to Det Hvide Fyr being used as a signal station from 1871. Despite changes in its function, Det Hvide Fyr remained an iconic structure, restored to its original design in 1960. This not only preserves a piece of Danish cultural heritage but also tells the story of the evolution of lighthouse technology over time.

The house contains around 150 paintings and drawings, as well as personal possessions like his plaited slippers. Drachmann was one of the first painters to visit Skagen in 1872. His appraisal of the place inspired many artists to do the same.
Drachmann was trained as a painter but was more successful as writer. Drachmann wrote countless poems and plays. In his time, Drachmann was the most celebrated Danish author.
It was only late in his life that Drachmann got his own home in Skagen. In 1902 he bought a former schoolmaster’s cottage in Skagen and had it remodeled for as studio and home.
Drachmann was an eccentric character. He wore a long white beard and was often flaunting a wide brimmed hat and a cape. He had six children by three different women but was only married twice. Even with his great success, he was in constant financial trouble and had to rely on the benevolence of patrons and his publisher.
The interior of Drachmanns Hus is every bit as eccentric as its owner. Norwegian vernacular furniture is mixed with souvenirs from his many travels and personal memorabilia. His friends, the artists couple Marie and Peder Severing Krøyer participated in the interior decorating of the house and Marie Krøyer designed several pieces of furniture inspired by the Arts & Crafts movement.

In the dunes west of Skagen stands the tower of the old Sct. Laurentius Church, today known as ‘The Sand buried Church’. For four hundred years it gathered the congregation, until drifting sand started to block the road and cemetery, and in 1795 the congregation were forced to cease worship, and the church was closed.
Sct. Laurentius was a magnificent church with impressive furnishings, of which now only the altar's two heavy candlesticks remain. They stand on the altar of the 'new' church, Skagen church. Beneath the surface there is still remnants of the church's foundation and floor, as well as a baptismal font that was not - like the rest of the furniture - removed and sold.
Recent studies around the 200th anniversary of the church's closure have helped mark the church's floor plan, including the location of the nave and sacristy, which can be seen behind the tower. Red poles mark the ground plan, while fascines mark the known parts of the old cemetery wall. Many questions are still unanswered, which probably is part of the fascination of the church.
Laurentius (Saint Lawrence) is the patron saint of this and many other west Danish churches. He was the protector of the sailors and the poor and suffered martyrdom on a gridiron. The gridiron can be found in Skagen city coat of arms together with the words " Vort håb til Gud alene/ Our hope to God alone"
In the summer Skagen Church arranges outdoor service every Thursday evening at 19.30 from mid-June to mid-August at the Sanded Church with wind music.
400 m from the sand buried church there is a parking lot with a playground, tables, benches and toilets - and during the summer you will find a kiosk, from which tickets are sold to get into the church tower.
