Hvalfisken Sculpture
Highlight • Monument
for it tells the eventful story of a legendary ship and is a symbol
of the city's maritime identity.
The figure was created by the artist František Balek and donated by the Albani Foundation
to commemorate Svendborg's 750th anniversary in 2003. It commemorates a ship built in Kalmar in 1801 and later known as "The Whale Fish," inspired by its figurehead, the whale itself.
The ship itself had a long life:
It sailed for the Royal Greenland trading company until 1899.
Afterward, it served as a stationary training ship for the Svendborg Maritime School.
Finally, it was even used as a barge during the construction of the Limfjord Bridge
before it sank in 1942.
Today's sculpture at the harbor keeps this story alive and invites visitors to reflect
on Svendborg's close connection to the sea.

Boy and Swan Fountain, Svendborg
Highlight • Monument
The depiction depicts a boy playfully interacting with a swan, a scene that exudes tranquility and childlike curiosity. The work of art also functions as a fountain, its gently rippling water adding to the atmosphere on the harbor promenade.
Despite vandalism, which once saw the sculpture thrown into the water, it has been restored and now shines once again in its original location.
