The city of Odense is the third largest city in Denmark. Odense is one of the oldest cities of Denmark and had its 1000th anniversary in 1988. To celebrate this, a forest named “the Thousand Year Forest” was cultivated. The shrine of Saint Canute in Saint Canute’s Cathedral held great attraction for pilgrims throughout the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, the town was the meeting-place of several parliaments, and down to 1805 it was the seat of the provincial assembly of Funen.
Odense’s most famous landmark was Odinstarnet (The Odin Tower) constructed in 1935, as the second-tallest tower in Europe, only surpassed by the Eiffel Tower. Odinstarnet was blown up by a Danish Nazi group in 1944 and has never been rebuilt. However, a miniature model of it now stands in the residential area Odinsparken in the area where the original tower was.Odense is the home of a number of football clubs.There is a theatre as well as a symphony orchestra, a zoo, and the Funen Village which is an open-air museum with old houses typical of Funen.
