Maritime Museum

Nakskov has a proud maritime history, which you can learn all about at the Nakskov Ship and Maritime Museum, located in Klostergade. The Nakskov shipyard, among others, built the training ship Danmark and Jutlandia. 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.

The Sugar Museum

The Lolland soil is perfect for growing beets and this has been the basis for a strong local tradition of beet production and processing.
