Fåborg - Old Farm Museum

(Local Name: Den Gamle Gård Museum) The house named "Den gamle Gård" (The Old Farm) at Holkegade 1 in Fåborg was built in 1725 and made into a museum in 1932. Early life in Fåborg is documented in one department, with a luxurious Roccoco Room containing a fine collection of glass, porcelain and china. In an adjoining house there is an exhibition of articles associated with sea-faring, formerly an important facet of the town's economy. The third department displays objects from the island of Lyo, to the south of Funen, including textiles and embroidery.
