Best Attractions in Lolland

BonBon-Land is a sprawling, candy-themed amusement park in Holmegaard on the island of Zealand, about an hour from Copenhagen. Born from the quirky Danish sweet brand BonBon, it mixes gentle family rides, wild roller coasters, water attractions and playgrounds in a big, green setting. Expect outrageous cartoon mascots, tongue‑in‑cheek humour and a full day of fun, with plenty of places to eat, splash, and simply sit on the grass while kids burn off energy.

The Medieval Center near Nykøbing Falster is a large open‑air living history museum that recreates a Danish market town around the year 1400. Costumed craftspeople, merchants and knights bring the fictional town of Sundkøbing to life with daily demonstrations of archery, jousting and cannon fire. You can wander cobbled lanes, step into timber-framed houses and workshops, and explore a hands‑on technology park featuring full‑scale medieval inventions. It is one of Denmark’s most engaging historical attractions for families and history lovers.

Knuthenborg Safaripark on the island of Lolland is Northern Europe’s largest safari park, blending a historic manor landscape with drive-through animal areas, playgrounds and immersive themed zones. From giraffes, rhinos and tigers to wolves and lemurs, over a thousand animals roam expansive enclosures that you explore mainly by car, with walking zones, the Dinosaur Forest, Limpopoland amusement area and the Museum of Evolution rounding out a full, family‑friendly day in the wild.

Denmark's only crocodile zoo, located on Falster island, houses all living crocodile species in tropical environments recreating their natural habitats. Visitors encounter massive specimens like Sobek, Europe's largest crocodile at over 5 meters, alongside pythons, tree leopards, and other exotic animals. The zoo features narrow, steep pathways through humid jungle settings maintained at 22-28°C, interactive animal encounters, and specialized night zoo experiences during selected periods.

Hidden beneath the chalk cliffs near Rødvig, the Cold War Museum Stevnsfort is a former top-secret fortress carved 18 metres underground in the limestone of Stevns Klint. Once part of NATO’s frontline defence, it monitored the Baltic Sea and the Warsaw Pact with heavy artillery, radar and missile systems. Today, guided tours lead you through 1.6–1.8 km of tunnels, command rooms and gun emplacements, while an outdoor exhibition of missiles, tanks and radar gear reveals how close Denmark stood to the nuclear front line.

Set high in the so‑called “Alps of Lolland” above the Smålandsfarvandet strait, Dodekalitten is a monumental open‑air artwork: a circle of twelve towering granite figures, each 7–9m tall and weighing up to 45 tonnes. Their carved heads gaze toward the centre of a 40m‑wide ring, where custom electroacoustic music plays from hidden speakers from sunrise to sunset. Surrounded by fields, ancient burial mounds and sea views, this contemporary stone circle blends landscape, sound and sculpture into a quietly powerful experience that feels both timeless and distinctly modern.

Valdemars Slot is a grand 17th‑century manor house on the island of Tåsinge near Svendborg, built by King Christian IV and later owned by naval hero Niels Juel. Today it combines historic royal interiors and baroque architecture with a contemporary art programme, set amid forests, beaches and wildlife‑rich meadows. Public paths, sea views and a coastal lagoon make it as much a nature escape as a cultural landmark, with seasonal exhibitions, events and a relaxed estate atmosphere.

Set in windswept coastal landscapes near Bagenkop on South Langeland, Langelandsfort is a former Cold War naval fort transformed into an evocative open‑air museum. Built in the early 1950s to monitor traffic through the Langelandsbelt and stop enemy ships in case of war, it now invites you into original bunkers, gun positions, command posts and radar installations. You can explore a real submarine, a minesweeper, Cold War aircraft, sections of the Berlin Wall and exhibitions on surveillance, espionage and Denmark’s frontline role between East and West.

Limpopoland is the high-energy amusement area at the heart of Knuthenborg Safari Park on Lolland, Denmark. Here, safari adventure meets classic family fun, with Europe’s steepest water slide, a family roller coaster, Denmark’s largest nature playground, a big water play zone and climbing volcano. Framed by African-inspired theming, it is designed for kids from toddlers to teens, with plenty of spots for adults to relax, refuel and watch the action.
