Struer Museum is a must see in Struer! Recently modernized and enlarged with a section about Bang & Olufsen (B&O). The famous Danish producer of high-end home electronics was founded in Struer in 1925, and the museum tells the story about the factory and displays many old radios and televisions.
The museum also contains exhibitions about Struer in general, and you can visit the "House of Johannes Buchholtz". He was a famous writer, who lived in Struer from 1902 to 1940 - and his house still stands like it did in the 1920's and 1930's... Old furniture, books, arts, old household items, etc.

Struer Lystanlæg is a lovely old park in the centre of Struer. The park is a great place for a walk or a quiet rest. Along the walking paths you’ll find a pond with ducks, a small wood, and many beautiful flowerbeds.
If you enter the park from Anlægsvej/Smedegade you’ll see the statue “Struer Pigen” (The Struer Girl). Furthermore Struer Lystanlæg is also home for an open air stage and a playground for the children.

Just outside Humlum, a few miles from Struer, you’ll find the summer residential area called Toftum Bjerge. It is a very scenic place with cliff formations created during the ice ages many thousands years ago. Some of the cliff formations are up to 35 metres high, and from the top there is an amazing view of Oddesund, Thy, and Limfjorden.
Beside the views, Toftum Bjerge also has a beach and this is during the summer a popular place for sunbathers, swimmers, and anglers. And sometimes you can be lucky and see a seal resting on the beach. The area is a great place for a walk...

The local museum in Struer has a branch located on the harbour marina. Here you’ll find a small exhibition with some interesting items and photos. Many are from the time when the harbour was created, but there are also a few photos describing the life of a fisherman in the older days. OK – not that much to see, but it is free to enter and absolutely worth a short visit if you are at the harbour in Struer.
From the restaurant ‘Marina Club’ you go right (towards the city) and look for a black building at the end of one of the piers.

Struer Youth Hostel: Below the Danish standard

Struer is located in the mid-western part of Jutland, and a trip to the west coast is a great way to spend your day!
Around 40 kilometres from Struer you'll find the "Vesterhav" (the North Sea) and I love this part of Denmark. Small villages, good fishing opportunities, long walks along the beach, sunbathing, and days with strong wind clearing your mind... But be careful if bathing, the current can be very strong.

A bit north of Struer, through the village of Humlum you will come to the Limfjord. From the Stuer side there is a great view of the fjord and sorrounding landscape.
