Vacation in Denmark . . . Support The Danish Immigrant Museum!


Benedikte Ehlers Olesen, a member of The Danish Immigrant Museum’s board of directors, and her husband Poul Olesen are making a fabulous offer ~ they are offering their Danish summer home for rent at a reduced price with all proceeds being donated to the museum.

The house is located in the middle of Jutland, a 10-minute drive from Viborg, Denmark’s second oldest town, 45 minutes to Århus and 40 minutes to Ålborg.  It has three bedrooms, sleeping 6 comfortably but it can sleep a total of 8.  The house has 2 bathrooms (one with a hot tub), kitchen with refrigerator, oven, and microwave.  The home is a five minute drive to shopping, bakery, butcher shop, bank, post office, inns and more.  The amenities of this beautiful waterfront home may be enjoyed through every season.

The home usually rents for $3,000 per week, but through the generosity of the Olesen’s you may rent it at the rate of $1,000 per week with all proceeds being donated to The Danish Immigrant Museum.  Interested individuals should contact the museum at 1.800.759.9192 or E.Mail at
