Experiences for children on Funen 2025

Langeland Fort was built all the way back in the 1950s. The fort was built with cannons, underground bunkers and anti-aircraft positions. During the Cold War, it was important to be able to keep an eye on the Warsaw Pact's air and naval activities, and this was done from Langeland Fort. Today it is a museum, with stories and tales from that time. At the museum, you can see a MIG-23 fighter plane, a minesweeper, a submarine and a complete section of the Berlin Wall. These experiences take place both underground and above ground, which makes it a very special experience for visitors. The Cold War Museum is not the only exciting museum on Langeland. You can also visit Fiskeriets Hus, which contains the history of fishing, or Langeland Museum, where you can see and read about ancient finds from Langeland and Strynø.

The Medicinal Gardens in Tranekær contain Northern Europe's largest collection of medicinal plants divided into six themed gardens. The gardens offer an educational experience with signs explaining the medicinal uses of the plants. The place is family-friendly with a special nursery where all the plants are edible. It is all run by volunteers, and you can enjoy your own food in the scenic surroundings. Try the Øhavsstien stage 5 which takes you past these beautiful gardens!

A really nice family attraction can be experienced in Bagenkop on Langeland, namely Rasmus Klump's ship. The ship is put into the water around Easter and is taken up again in October, so if you want to visit the ship, you should do it during the summer period. It would be a good idea to bring fishing nets, as crabs can be caught by the boat. A day at the harbor in Bagenkop is therefore ideal for a trip for the whole family.
