Skagen
Welcome to Skagen – the northenmost point in Denmark, where the Baltic and the North Seas meet. Skagen offers unique experiences all year round: a fascinating nature, authentic danish and scandinavian culture, exciting events and much more. 65 km long, white, sandy beaches backed by dunes, tempt visitors to engage in all the activities that go with seaside life. Skagen’s own art is world famous and richly depicts the history of the town. Some of Denmark’s most well known and prized artists made their mark on Skagen and its development as a holiday venue. The artists were attracted by the wonderful light, the scenery, and the harsh conditions that the residents of the fishing villages lived under. By the end of the 19th century there was an artists’ colony proper here, populated by artists from all over Europe. Many of their works can be seen at ”Skagen’s Museum” . Visitors can gain a living impression of art and life in Skagen at two authentic artists’ homes: ”Drachmann’s House”, the home of poet and marine painter Holger Drachmann, and the home of the married couple ”Anna and Michael Ancher’s House”.

Skagen City | Port of Skagen
Skagen City | Port of Skagen
Welcome to where the Baltic meets the North Sea. One of our cruise ports of call on Royal Caribbeans Explorer of the Seas was Skagen Denmark. This is a very small cruise port so we walked to town in less then 15 minutes. I am not sure what to make of this cruise port as there is not much to do or see. We walked through the little town which didnt seem to be ready for the tourist industry, as there was no souvenir shops or anything really geared towards tourist. It was a very beautiful little town, but we saw it quickly and headed back to the ship. I am not sure why cruise ships stop here, but they do. If there is a next time for me, I will stay on the ship and take advantage of less passengers on the ship for a few hours.

Skagen Summer in the City
Skagen is the northenmost town of Denmark with a very special atmosphere. This town and it's amazing landscape was an inspiration for so many painters, musicians, poets and of course videographers. On the other hand, when summer comes, Skagen turns out to be a very vivid, exciting and happy place, what makes this town so unique.

Skagen, Denmark, where 2 seas meet
Movie taken on the most northern point of Denmark close to a town called Skagen.
The name of this spot is Grenen, it got this name for it's shape that looks like a tree-branch (gren in Danish).
On this spot, the 2 seas (Kattegat from the east and Skagerrak from the west) that fold around Denmark meet and their waves bump into each other.
It's quite a special sight, also the first time for me to ever see it.
I don't know if there are more places in the world where this happens. If so, please let me know in the comments!

Skagen - Denmark Travel Video
A two hour road trip north from our home in Aarhus took us to Skagen, the most Northern part of Denmark - where the two seas meet. Couldn't resist the picturesque scenery so here is a peek into the charming town of Skagen!
[Wikipedia] Skagen
Skagen (IPA: , Danish pronunciation: [ˈsɡæːɪn]) is Denmark's northernmost town and the area surrounding it. Occasionally known in English as The Scaw, it is situated on the east coast of the Skagen Odde peninsula in the far north of Jutland, it is part of Frederikshavn Municipality in Region Nordjylland. It is located 41 kilometres (25 mi) north of Frederikshavn and 108 kilometres (67 mi) northeast of Aalborg. With its well-developed harbour, Skagen is Denmark's main fishing port and also has a thriving tourist industry, attracting some 2 million people annually.
Originally the name was applied to the peninsula but it now usually refers to the town itself. The settlement began in the Middle Ages as a fishing village, renowned for its herring industry. Thanks to its seascapes, fishermen and evening light, towards the end of the 19th century it became popular with a group of Impressionist artists now known as the Skagen Painters. In 1879, the Skagen Fisherman's Association was established with the purpose of facilitating the local fishing industry through the Skagensbanen railway, which opened as a narrow-gauged railway in 1890. The modern port of Skagen opened on 20 November 1907, and with the railway connections to Frederikshavn and the rest of Denmark, tourism began to develop.
In the early 1910s, Christian X and Queen Alexandrine often visited Skagen and brought friends from other European monarchies. They built the summer residence Klitgaarden, completed in 1914. Between the 1930s and 1950s the town grew rapidly, with the population more than doubling from 4,048 in 1930 to 9,009 in 1955. Skagen reached a peak population of 14,050 in 1980, after which it gradually declined. As of 1 January 2014 it has a population of 8,198. Thanks to the artistic community which still remains in Skagen, the local arts and crafts trade remains important to the income of the town with its numerous crafts shops and galleries. Chains such as the international jeweller Skagen Designs have branches in the town, and given the abundance of fresh fish coming in at the port of Skagen, seafood forms a staple in Skagen's restaurants.
St Lawrence's Church was built just outside the village at the end of the 14th century, but after it was buried in drifting sand it was replaced by Skagen Church in 1841 designed by Christian Frederik Hansen. It was redeveloped in 1909–10 by Ulrik Plesner who also designed a number of other buildings in Skagen, including Klitgaarden and the railway station. Several landmarks in the town are closely associated with the Skagen Painters who used to frequent them, including Brøndums Hotel, Skagens Museum, Michael and Anna Ancher's House, and Drachmann's House.
Skagen's first school was the Latinskole, a grammar school, which was in operation from 1549 until 1739. By the end of the 19th century, three schools had been established in Skagen, and in 1921, Skagen's Skipper School was opened to train navigators for both fishing boats and merchant ships, and in 1955, the public school Ankermedets skole was opened on Skagavej. The primary gymnasium of the town, Skagen Kultur- og Fritidscenter, opened in 1972, and was later expanded with an aquatic centre and a number of smaller training facilities. Skagen's Sportscenter was completed in 1974, primary to accommodate badminton and tennis. The local football club, Skagen Idræts Klub, was founded in 1946 and plays in Jyllandsserien, one of the lower divisions in Danish football. The Hvide Klit Golf Club is located some 17 km (11 mi) south of the town.
Skagen station is the most northerly railway station in mainland Denmark and is the terminus of the Skagensbanen. Nordjyske Jernbaner operates the local train service between Skagen and Frederikshavn with onward national connections by DSB. From Frederikshavn, there are ferries to Gothenburg and Oslo. Aalborg Airport with flights to destinations across Europe is located some 100 km (62 mi) southwest of Skagen. As in other Danish cities, cycling is popular.

My trip to Denmark, the city of Skagen. On July 23, 2010

Where 2 Oceans Meet - Grenen Skagen & Teddy Bear Museum | Family Travel Vlog
We went to Skagen, the most Northern town in Denmark, to explore the beautiful town and the surrounding area. After a great fish and chips lunch, we went to see a teddy bear museum, after which we went up a tower with a great view over the whole town. All of the houses in Skagen, except for a few, are painted yellow with red roofs, which gives the town a very unique feel to it.
At the very top of Denmark, it's possible to see two oceans meeting - the Baltic sea and the North sea. We thought we might not get to go because of the weather, but even though it was kind of windy, it was still so amazing to see it. This is such a cool experience - but remember to bring your rubber boots!
Skagen is definitely a must see if you're visiting Denmark!

SUMMER IN SKAGEN
Just another little video I've put together of the summer time up in the very North of Denmark, in Skagen. I certainly didn't capture all of Skagen but I did my best and I hope you like this small clip of my little Danish town.
Skagen- Let The Good Times Roll
Skagen is the northenmost town of Denmark with a very special atmosphere. This town and it's amazing landscape was an inspiration for so many painters, musicians, poets and of course videographers. On the other hand, when summer comes, Skagen turns out to be a very vivid, exciting and happy place, what makes this town so unique.
I would like to say thank you to Skagen Festival, Buddy Holly-Skagen, Hyttefadet, Velo and all the people who helped me finish this video!
