Discover Tønder and the beautiful nature of the Wadden Sea
The capital of the South Jutland marshlands now a part of the new National Park Wadden Sea is called Tønder. The town had its first hanseatic municipal law already in 1243, and it is thus the oldest market town in Denmark. Originally the town had its own harbour and direct access to the sea, but when the dikes were built west of the town in the 1550s, this connection was closed. In return, the town and its guests may delight in the many beautiful and well-preserved gable houses from the 1600s and 1700s a period when the town flourished because of the extensive lace industry.
The hotel of the town is called Hotel Tønderhus and it has proud traditions as such. This also goes for the cuisine of the hotel where the motto is to offer wellness with a twinkle in the eye. For lunch you might try the South Jutland omelette with bacon, onions, potatoes, mustard, beetroots and rye bread or good Danish smørrebrød (open sandwiches). The evening menu comprises e.g. halibut meunière, ginger roasted duck breast and fillet of red deer.
