During your visit

Where to park? Is the house suitable for wheelchair users? Find the answers here.

Parking

The three Museums are located right in the centre of Ærøskøbing’s narrow streets.

We therefore recommend that anyone arriving by car park at the harbour or in Pilebækken. From there, it is a 5-minute walk to the museums.

Food and drink

Coffee, soft drinks and ice cream can be purchased at the Bottle Ship Museum. 

You are welcome to bring your own food and drinks to The Bottle Ship Museum and Ærø Museum. Outdoor seating is available in the courtyards at both museums.

Shop

At Ærø Museum and The Bottle Ship Museum, you will find a nice little selection of literature on local history and souvenirs. The shop has the same opening times as the museum. 

Accessibility

The museum buildings contain staircases and are, unfortunately, difficult to access for people who have trouble walking and inaccessible to people in wheelchairs.

Dogs

Assistance dogs are welcome in Ærø Museum and The Bottle Ship Museum. We simply ask that dogs be kept on a leash and consideration should be given to other guests.

Photography

You are welcome to take photographs in the museums for private use.

For professional photography, you must contact the museum in advance by e-mail at: info@museumsydfyn.dk

 

Smoking

Smoking is not permitted in the museum.
