NV Land Guide
The port of the sleepy "nest"' can still be seen that there was more life here in the past, when Jutland cattle and agricultural products were still shipped. The heyday as a fishing village is also visibly a thing of the past, even though fishing boats still set out to catch fish. The town itself offers nothing exciting. In a few minutes you can cross over to the pretty island of Hjarnø (see Hjarnø). There is also a ferry connection between Snaptun, Horsens and the island of Endelave.
Three kilometers from Snaptun is one of Denmark's oldest village museums, the Glud Open Air Museum. The exhibitions in the houses of the museum village show old household utensils, traditional costumes and tools from three centuries of peasant culture.
The visit is definitely worthwhile. It is shown here how the field was plowed, the bread baked and how the beer was brewed. The visitor learns how butter was made and how flax was prepared.
Tools of the wheelwright, carpenter, mason, cooper, pump maker, clog maker, spinning wheel turner and watchmaker are exhibited. There is also a collection of ship models from Noah's Ark to the ships of the 15th century. A pillory makes imaginable, to which torture the chained were exposed.
