In the footsteps of the war - the occupation period in Holbæk

Freedom fighters in Holbæk May 1945

Few stories from the occupation period in Holbæk about the resistance movement and sabotage. On the walk, there are stops at places where landmark events took place.

During World War II, Denmark was occupied by Germany 2-1940. The occupation was a dark period in Denmark's history and in Holbæk many citizens and families fought each other and the Germans with their lives. However, most looked after themselves and managed to get through their everyday lives despite the occupation.

On the walk around Holbæk, there are stops at some of the places where battles were fought between Germans and local citizens. Hear about acts of sabotage aimed at both the German occupiers and the Danish companies that helped the Germans and hear about arms receipts that made the resistance possible.

The trip is not suitable for people with walking difficulties.

It is necessary to buy a ticket in advance via the ticket express.
