Local tips
- Visit earlier in the day for the best choice, as many fresh donations are sorted and placed on the shop floor in the morning.
- Bring a reusable tote or daypack; larger items such as coats, books or ceramics add up quickly and bags on site may be limited.
- Check clothing carefully for sizing and minor wear, remembering that brands, cuts and older pieces can fit differently than modern standards.
- Keep an eye on the homeware shelves for distinctive Scandinavian glass or ceramics, which are often priced far below design-store equivalents.
- Carry a small amount of local currency or ensure your card works internationally, as payment options in smaller charity shops can be more limited than large chains.

A cosy corner of Nyborg for second-hand treasure hunters
Kors Genbrug sits in a quiet part of Nyborg, a short way from the historic centre, and feels immediately local in the best sense. Step inside and you find a bright, unfussy space lined with clothing racks, bookcases and tables carefully laid with ceramics, glass and small household items. It has the charm of a flea market but is easier to browse, with wide aisles and clearly grouped sections. The atmosphere is relaxed and unhurried. Many items reflect everyday Danish taste: simple glassware, clean-lined lamps, colourful textiles and plenty of practical kitchenware. This is not a curated concept store; it is a working charity shop where stock changes often and part of the experience is the anticipation of what might be on the shelves today.Fashion with character and a story behind every hanger
The clothing section is usually the liveliest corner. Rails display a mix of women’s, men’s and children’s garments, from basic jeans and shirts to the occasional vintage dress or statement coat. You may spot Scandinavian brands alongside unlabelled but well-made pieces, with seasonal items like knitwear and outerwear particularly strong in colder months. Trying to define the style here misses the point: Kors Genbrug is about discovery. You might pair a classic wool coat with an unexpected retro handbag, or find a stack of scarves that instantly refresh your travel wardrobe. Because prices are kept accessible, it is easy to experiment, putting together a new look without stretching your budget.Homeware shelves filled with everyday design and nostalgia
Beyond fashion, the shop opens up into shelves of homeware where Danish practicality meets nostalgia. Porcelain cups, patterned plates, baking tins and enamel pots share space with vases, candleholders and the occasional statement piece of glass. Many items are gently worn rather than pristine, which only adds to their character. This is a rewarding stop if you enjoy cooking or hosting. You can assemble a mix-and-match table setting, pick up extra serving bowls for a holiday cottage stay, or find a quirky jug that becomes the talking point at dinner. Travellers with limited luggage often gravitate towards smaller items: linen napkins, illustrated cookbooks or compact decorative objects that carry a sense of place without taking much space.Community spirit and the value of giving things a second life
Kors Genbrug is part of a wider Danish tradition where charity shops help fund social work while reducing waste. Donations from locals keep the shelves full, and volunteers are at the heart of the operation, sorting, cleaning and displaying everything you see. Shopping here is not only about saving money; it is also about supporting social initiatives and extending the life of usable goods. There is a gentle rhythm to the shop’s day. Mornings often bring new donations; afternoons can be quieter, giving you time to linger at the book section or sift through a box of old records. Conversations at the counter sometimes drift to the stories behind particular items, reinforcing the sense that this is a place where objects and people both find a new chapter.A practical, low-key stop in your Nyborg wanderings
As a visitor, Kors Genbrug works well as a short, satisfying detour between sights. With typical weekday opening hours from late morning to late afternoon and a shorter session on Saturdays, it fits easily around castle visits or seaside walks. The layout is simple enough that even a quick 20-minute browse can be rewarding, while devoted thrifters may happily stay longer. Prices are generally modest, making it a smart spot for picking up extra layers if the Danish weather surprises you, or for replacing a forgotten travel item without resorting to fast fashion. Whether you leave with a single book or a bundled bag of finds, you walk out with more than objects: a small connection to Nyborg’s everyday life and the quiet pleasure of having chosen second-hand.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
