Copenhagen's Oldest Active Cemeteries
Holmen's and Garnison's Cemeteries in Østerbro
Holmen's and Garnison's cemeteries are located close to Østerport Station and they're the oldest active cemeteries in Copenhagen – respectively from 1666 and 1671. Originally they were dedicated to the military and navy, serving as place of rest many an admiral and general. Even regular soldiers are buried here – and it might be a bit overwhelming, but these cemeteries are also home to several mass graves from the Battle at Reden (1801) and the war of 1864.
But there isn't just war here. Many known politicians, musicians and actors lie peacefully in these flower-covered cemeteries.
The chapels also boast of a lot history. The somewhat humble chapel at Garnison's contains a dark history related Nazi Germany. Holmen's chapel was originally a Norwegian stave church!
The cemeteries can be visited individually or in combination, since they're located at very short distance from eachother. The walk is amazingly beautiful, since these cemeteries are park-like areas with large trees and ample benches.

Historic walk in Vejle
Vejle in the south eastern Danish peninsula Jutland was founded in the Middle Ages as a port.
For many years Vejle was a very small place with only a few hundred inhabitants. Slowly Vejle developed into a town of trade being strategically well positioned by the sea and surrounded by streams on which boats could take cargo from the inner parts of Southern Jutland to the port of Vejle and from Vejle's port it could be shipped out to the rest of the world.
Vejle was occupied by Austrian and Prussian forces during both of the wars of Sleswig 1848-50 and 1864. Wars with a significance for the Danish perception of being a Dane and the shaping of Denmark in those years but most likely these two wars mean nothing to you or your country. In the later part of the 19th century and the early part of the 20th century, Vejle became a well known industrial town especially known for its iron foundry and its woollen mill, at both of which a large part of Vejle's work force was employed.
Today Vejle is famous for its modern architecture at the old port area and for being a town always at the forefront of development in any field.
Let me guide you through Vejle's history and the vibrant town Vejle is today – I love my town.

Medieval Monasteries of Odense
The monasteries played a major role in the Middle Ages – both in the life of the church and in people's daily life. The monasteries were religious, cultural and financial centres: here medical and agricultural "research" was carried out. The monasteries were the hospitals of that time.
In modern literature, writers like Umberto Eco, "The Name of the Rose", filmed with Sean Connery in the leading part and Jan Guillou's the Arn trilogy have described life in the monasteries.
In the Middle Ages Odense was home to four monasteries and two convents. Most of the buildings do not exist any longer, but three of the monasteries exist as much renovated buildings with other functions for example the monastery of the Order of the Knights of St. John, later the royal castle in Odense and today the host of parts of the local municipal administration. These buildings will form the starting point of my story about the significance of the monasteries and convents in medieval Odense.
