Nakskov has a proud maritime history, which you can learn all about at the Nakskov Ship and Maritime Museum, located in the beautiful old harbor building at Nakskov harbor. The Nakskov Shipyard is where the School Ship Denmark and Jutlandia, among others, were built. Since the shipyard closed in 1987, the harbor area has been converted to modern industrial production, where a number of companies have renovated the area.
