Housed in a historic 18th-century merchant’s residence just steps from the harbor, it has evolved into one of Ærø’s most beloved meeting spots. Carefully restored to preserve its original timber beams and elegant old-world details, the space balances rustic Scandinavian coziness with vibrant local culture. Inside, a buzz of activity fills the air. Landbogården is much more than a restaurant – it is a living cultural house where the island’s creative spirit springs to life.

Regulars admire the friendly service, affordable prices for the quality, and a sense of inclusivity – visitors soon feel like part of the community. With over a century of history and a contemporary commitment to culture, sustainability, and island life, Landbogården embodies the spirit of Ærøskøbing.
