Daugbjerg Mini Village and Gl. Water mill

The 150 buildings are distributed over 20 farms, 10 small houses, as well as a church, schools, watermill, the Royal Lime Kiln and the fountain that indicates the source of the Sejbækken stream.

It is this stream that provides water to the mill pond.

Despite its size, the city is extremely rich in exciting sights such as Daugbjerg Dås, with its many myths and legends, the Romanesque quadrilateral church, Daugbjerg Kalkgruber, where Jens Longkniv, the answer to Robin Hood at the time, stayed and not least Daugbjerg Mini- Village.

The establishment of Daugbjerg Mini-Village started in 1994 and in 2007 the Mini-Village was completed as an exact copy of Daugbjerg as the town looked before the great fire in 1791.

It is said that it was Taters and night watchmen 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 been in charge of building the houses are all pensioners who were born and raised in and around Daugbjerg or are otherwise connected to Daugbjerg.
