Walk the History of Assens

The city of Assens in Western Funen is a town with an interesting past. About 200 years ago it started to succeed on the back of the industrialization, where they enjoyed a lucrative placement close to Germany. However, the town is much older, and we first hear about it in the Danish Census Book of 1231 by King Valdemar.

In the 19 th century factories began to open with huge success, and a lot of renowned artists and heroes are from Assens. Learn more about this and many other parts of the town's history on this guided tour.
