Faaborg

The trip from Lyø to Faaborg took only an hour. On arrival we treated ourselves to smoked mackerel and potato salad in the 'Røgeri', a small stall where fish is smoked and sold and which you find in many Danish harbours.

From the water you can clearly see the bell tower (which was covered in scaffolding when we were here two years ago):








The bell tower was part of what was first a monastery and later the St Nicolai church in the 16th century. The King (we don't know which one) ordered the church to be pulled down, but allowed the bell tower to stand, which it does to these days.

Faaborg is a pretty Funen town with quite a few characteristic wooden framed houses, of which these are probably the nicest:








The weather continues to be very pleasant although quite cool.
We'll probably move to Avernakø, again just an hour away, tomorrow.
