3 km/2mi southwest of Frederikshavn along Mollehus Allé, set in 50 ha/124 acres of woodland, lies Bangsbo Manor (1750), a three-winged half-timbered building which is now a museum. In the maritime section can be seen a collection of galleon figureheads and models and paintings of ships. Most impressive is the "Ellingåschiff", a former trading ship similar to Viking ships.
