The story behind Ene Øjesten
By Børkop Vandmølle sits Ene Øjesten, crafted by Thomas Dambo and his team. She has wandered through the local area and discovered a large, flat, and perfectly round stone. According to the giant troll, this is no ordinary stone—it is magical, and through it, she can see the future.
"Den Store Troldefolkefest" is the name of the project sparked by Covid-19. Thomas Dambo was originally scheduled to build 25 trolls around the world, but due to the pandemic, he returned to Denmark. Here, the troll festival came to life with the help of a great deal of volunteer support from locals across the country.
