Your entrance to the South Funen Archipelago. Shipping is a key element of Svendborg’s DNA. The town was built on a small bay, which provided good protection for the harbour. During the Middle Ages, Svendborg was the second largest town on Funen with a flourishing herring industry until the mid-16th century. Svendborg looks out on the South Funen archipelago. From here you can hop on a ferry to many of the islands. Ærø is particularly easy to reach. Up until the 1980s the town was known for its shipbuilding. There are still commercial activities at the harbour, but most are related to the experience industry. So, drop by Frederiksø for a delicious cocktail or live music. Hit the town and replenish your energy, ready for more cycling challenges. Scroll down and find links to Svendborg below.
