Odense, Denmark

City guide

Odense

Odense is the main city on the island of Funen and the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen, whose childhood home and a dedicated museum sit among the old town's half-timbered streets. The compact centre is built for walking and cycling, with pedestrianised Vestergade and Kongensgade forming its main shopping spine.
