Røsnæs Point and Røsnæs Lighthouse

Røsnæs Point is the westernmost point of Zealand and the biggest tourist attraction on Røsnæs, with more than 100,000 visitors to Røsnæs Lighthouse each year. The lighthouse and the keeper’s house date back to 1846, and from the top of the lighthouse, you can enjoy the unique view. Entry is free.

During World War II, German forces occupied Røsnæs from 1940-45, building an observation post in front of the lighthouse at the Point. At the lighthouse, you can watch videos and read more about the history from that time. Various artifacts are on display, and you can even test your knowledge with a quiz.

Extending from the Point is a unique underwater reef, visible from above. The reef is 1.8 km long and lies about 2 meters below the surface. The water over the reef is calm, making it a great spot for fishing as fish are drawn to the area. You might also be lucky enough to spot seals or porpoises.

You can buy an ice cream or a cup of coffee at Café Fyret, run by volunteers in the old horse stable, and enjoy the nature, the view, and the sun. Røsnæs Lighthouse and Café Fyret are open to visitors on weekends and public holidays from Easter until Sunday during the autumn holidays.
