Carriage ride

A journey back in time at a relaxed pace

The tour begins at Faaborg’s central square and takes you along cobbled streets lined with half-timbered houses and historic merchant homes. Along the way, you can enjoy the beautiful South Funen landscape as the carriage gently rolls toward Kaleko Mill.

Kaleko Mill – a living museum

Upon arrival at Kaleko Mill, you step into a piece of living history. The mill dates back to the 1600s and operated until 1912. Today, it functions as a museum under Øhavsmuseet.
