Local tips

Plan at least two hours so you can combine the galleries with a walk around Fuglsang manor and the Skejten nature area just beyond the museum.
Check current opening hours and any renovation notices in advance, as some gallery floors may occasionally be closed for refurbishment in winter.
If you are under 26, bring valid ID; standard admission is waived for younger visitors, making it an excellent-value cultural stop.
Use the large panorama window as a quiet pause point; sit for a few minutes and watch how changing light and weather alter the landscape view.
Visitors with reduced mobility can request wheelchairs or a walker from the museum; it is worth calling or emailing ahead to reserve these aids.

Getting There

Car from Nykøbing Falster

Driving from Nykøbing Falster to Fuglsang Kunstmuseum typically takes 15–25 minutes via main roads through Lolland’s countryside. Expect straightforward, mostly flat driving with clear signage near the estate. Parking is available by the museum without a separate fee, but spaces can fill during school holidays and special events, so allow a little extra time to park and walk to the entrance.
Regional bus from Nykøbing Falster

Regional buses run between Nykøbing Falster and stops near Fuglsang, with journeys usually taking 25–40 minutes depending on route and time of day. Standard single tickets on regional buses in this part of Denmark generally range around DKK 30–50 per adult, with discounts for children and young people. Services are less frequent in the evening and on weekends, so it is wise to check the timetable in advance and plan for a short walk from the nearest stop to the museum.
Bicycle from Nysted or Nykøbing Falster

Cycling to the museum is a scenic option in mild weather, using quiet country roads and designated cycle routes across largely flat terrain. From Nysted the ride can take around 30–45 minutes, while from Nykøbing Falster you should allow 45–70 minutes depending on fitness and wind conditions. There is no cost beyond any bicycle rental, but be prepared for strong coastal winds and limited shelter along the way; bring water and weather-appropriate clothing.

Danish art in a luminous landscape setting

Fuglsang Kunstmuseum sits at the end of an old manor avenue where farmland gives way to open sky and sea meadows. The museum’s low, angular building is designed to sit gently in the flat Lolland landscape, with white façades and tall windows pulling in soft coastal light. Inside, a permanent collection of mainly Danish art spans from the late 1700s through the Golden Age and Skagen painters to more experimental 20th‑century works. Rather than overwhelm, the galleries are arranged as a quiet sequence of rooms, each with space to stand back and study individual canvases or sculptures. Texts are clear and concise, and many works reference the surrounding landscape, making the setting feel like an extension of the art on the walls.

Architecture that frames the surrounding nature

The building, designed in a minimalist contemporary style, is known for its use of daylight and long sightlines. A central corridor draws your eye towards a large picture window at the far end, where the outside world suddenly opens up. From here, you look out over Skejten’s protected meadows and the shallow waters beyond, a living backdrop that changes with clouds and seasons. Courtyards and sheltered terraces break up the interior, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Pale surfaces and simple detailing keep the focus on both art and horizon, while acoustics are tuned for calm, making the museum feel hushed even on busier days.

Collections, special exhibitions and programmes

The core collection focuses on Danish painting and sculpture, with portraits, landscapes, and scenes of everyday life offering a visual journey through changing times. Works by key national artists are complemented by temporary exhibitions that may highlight a single artist, a theme in Nordic art, or new curatorial perspectives. Alongside exhibitions, the museum regularly hosts guided tours, artist talks and concerts in adjacent cultural spaces, deepening the connection between visual art, music and place. Family‑friendly activities, drawing materials and occasional workshops make it easy to engage younger visitors without disturbing the museum’s overall sense of quiet.

A day out on the Fuglsang estate

Just beyond the museum, the historic Fuglsang manor, gardens and the nature area of Skejten invite unhurried exploration. Tree‑lined paths lead towards the coast, where reeds sway and bird calls carry across the flatlands. Many visitors pair an hour or two in the galleries with a gentle walk outside, using the landscape to digest what they have seen indoors. In good weather, the lawns and benches around the museum and manor are ideal for a simple picnic. In cooler seasons, the proximity of open countryside glimpsed through the windows keeps a sense of space and airiness even when you stay inside.

Café, shop and practical comforts

On site, a café serves light meals, cakes and hot drinks with views onto the fields, making it a pleasant pause point between galleries. A compact shop stocks art books, design objects and locally sourced gifts, reflecting the museum’s emphasis on Danish creativity. Seating areas throughout the building let you rest, reflect or simply enjoy the stillness. The museum is on one level with step‑free access, accessible restrooms and a reputation for being particularly friendly to wheelchair users. Loan wheelchairs and other aids are available on request. Clear signage, uncluttered spaces and the manageable scale of the museum make it an easy and enjoyable visit for most age groups, whether you stay briefly or linger for half a day.
