Odense Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Most of the houses in this area were built in the 16th and 17th centuries. This applies, for example, to many of the beautiful farms along the Nørregade, Overgade and Nedergade. Oluf Bager and Hans Mule were among the wealthiest merchants in Odense and owned extensive possessions both in and out of town. It was a society with an extremely wide range from rich to poor.

Havhesten (Sea Horse) Fountain, Munke Mose, Odense

Highlight • Monument

The "Havhesten" (Seahorse) is a famous sculpture and fountain in Odense. Located at the entrance to Munke Mose Park, directly on the banks of the Odense River (near the Slusebroen, or Lock Bridge), it depicts a powerful, snorting mythical creature with the upper body of a horse and a mermaid on its back. The sculpture is made of bronze.

Created by the Danish sculptor Carl Hugo Liisberg, the artwork was erected in 1939. The sculpture is inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's play "Agnete and the Water Sprite," specifically by Agnete's lullaby, which was part of one of Andersen's more dramatic poems. The figure symbolizes the connection between humans and the mythical creatures of the water.

The sculpture is a popular attraction in Munke Mose and a distinctive landmark of the city.
