Søndergade and Danmarksgade Pedestrian Street, Frederikshavn
Highlight • Settlement
Frederikshavn offers everything you need for a great holiday memory. The city is unique with its many opportunities for shopping and dining, bunkers, impressive nature and even Denmark's only palm beach.
Frederikshavn offers a very special atmosphere thanks to its maritime history, its idyllic location and, not least, the ferry connections to Sweden, Norway and Læsø. The city's many visitors (around five million per year) have laid the foundation for a lively trade. Today, one of the country's longest pedestrian streets invites you to go shopping and nature offers a wealth of experiences and activities both on land and at sea.

In Frederikshavn it is worth visiting the approximately two kilometer long pedestrian zone. In North Jutland you can find a wide range of artisans, cozy towns with wonderful local shopping and unique shops.

Frederikshavn Church
Highlight • Religious Site
Frederikshavn Church, with 1,100 seats, is the largest church in Frederikshavn.
Completed in 1892, this remarkable building was designed by Vilhelm Ahlmann (1852–1928) in the National Romantic style. The central structure rises on the ground plan of a Greek cross. Ahlmann incorporated elements of an octagon as a recurring geometric feature. The central church tower, topped with a copper dome, is modeled after the neo-Gothic bell tower of Aachen Cathedral.
At the end of the 19th century, the city of Frederikshavn grew so much that Fladstrand Church was no longer sufficient. Planning for another church began in 1882, but it wasn't until 1890 that King Christian IX was able to lay the foundation stone. The church was consecrated on October 23, 1892.
The building underwent renovations in 2019. In addition to structural work, energy efficiency improvements were implemented, including the installation of underfloor heating and LED lighting. Visual changes were also made. The interior received new tiles, oak parquet flooring, and a redesigned chancel. Today, the parish has approximately 5,000 members.

Frederikshavn Station
Highlight • Rest Area
Frederikshavn Station is the terminus of both the Frederikshavn–Aalborg and Frederikshavn–Skagen railways and is operated by Nordjyske Jernbaner. On 31 March 1968, operations on the Fjerritslev–Frederikshavn railway line ended.
The first station in Frederikshavn was inaugurated on 15 August 1871 together with the Vendsyssel Line, which originally ran from Nørresundby to Frederikshavn. Later, there was a connection to Aalborg via the railway bridge over the Limfjord, which opened to traffic on 8 January 1879.
This station was located about 300 to 400 metres west of the current one, between Rådhus Alle and Parallelvej, where the town hall and other municipal facilities are now located. The name Jernbanegade commemorates this place. The original station building was built by N.P.C. Holsøe.
The decision to relocate the station was made as early as 1945, but this did not happen until 1979. The old station was demolished and the new one was built on the filled seabed, leaving enough space for a large freight yard.
On Friday 5 October 2018, the last passenger train ran on the section of line between Frederikshavn and Lindholm with line signals. Test runs were then carried out until operations with ETCS began on 21 October. Since then, Danske Statsbaner vehicles can only run as far as Lindholm.
Danske Statsbaner's IC trains terminate in Aalborg, and Frederikshavn is now only served by local trains. From Frederikshavn, the ETCS facilities prepared in 2014 were finally put into operation towards Strandby and Kvissel.
The line is now remotely controlled from the West signal box in Fredericia.
The local operating facilities in Hjørring and Frederikshavn have been closed. Lindholm station is remotely controlled from the Aalborg remote control center (FC = Fjernstyringscentral). The Hirtshals and Skagensbane are remotely controlled from FC Hjørring.
The station building contains a 7-Eleven kiosk, a waiting room, toilets and luggage boxes. In front of platform 1 is the bus station with bus connections to Aalborg, Sæby, Brønderslev and Sindal.
The station is the starting point of the Frederikshavn–Skagen railway line between Frederikshavn and Skagen. This was opened in 1890 in narrow gauge (1000 mm) and converted to standard gauge in 1924.

Forest Adventure Playground at Palmenstrand
Highlight • Rest Area
An exceptionally well-designed, spacious forest playground offering plenty of space and numerous themed landscapes. Tree houses, an Indian village, a zip line, numerous climbing opportunities, a treasure hunt in the jungle, and much more. It's a shame our children are already so big. We would have spent many hours here in the past.
