Daugbjerg Mini Village and Old Water Mill

Despite its size, Daugbjerg is extremely rich in exciting attractions such as Daugbjerg Dås, with its many myths and legends, the Romanesque church, Daugbjerg Lime Pits, where Jens “Longknife”, the Danish Robin Hood, stayed and last but not least Daugbjerg Mini Village.

The establishment of Daugbjerg Mini Village started in 1994, and in 2007 the village was completed as an exact copy of Daugbjerg, as the town looked like before the great fire in 1791. It is said that it was Roma people who set the fire on the night of Maundy Thursday in 1791.

The houses in Daugbjerg Mini Village were designed by the Mini Village's architect with the help of original old material. The mini-builders who have worked to build the houses are all pensioners who were born and raised in and around Daugbjerg or are otherwise connected to Daugbjerg.

Daugbjerg Mini Village is built on a scale of 1:10 and consists of 150 buildings spread over 20 farms, 10 small houses as well as a church, schools, water mill, Royal Lime kiln and the fountain that indicates the source of Sejbækken. It is this stream that supplies water to the mill pond.
