Svendborg Tourist Information

Small enough to be really cosybig enough to be a proper town, and with the heart of the city opening up towards the harbour front cafes and restaurants – integrated in the living fabric of harbour scenery. – The natural centre both for the residents and for visitors in South Funen and the archipelago.

Svendborg has retained its old city core with narrow crooked streets, squares and courtyard settings with traces of the town’s historic past way back to the early Middle Ages.

In the 13th century the town was mentioned as Swineburg and already in medieval times Svendborg was a thriving trading- and craftsman town, built up around the main industry, shipping.

In the late middle ages Svendborg was among the principal trading towns of Scandinavia.

Today Svendborg is a unique mix of old and new, of shipping and culture and history. Enticing as travel destination – and centrally located for your explorations out there in the archipelago.
