Nakskov has a proud maritime history, which you can learn all about at the Nakskov Ship and Maritime Museum, located in Klostergade.

In the basement of the city's local archive, you'll find a collection of locally used printing machines that are kept alive by a number of local volunteer typographers and mechanical geeks, including from the former local newspaper Ny Dag.
Sugar Museum
The soil of Lolland is perfect for growing beets and this has been the basis for a strong local tradition of beet production and processing. Today, the last two active Danish sugar factories are located in Nakskov and Nykøbing Falster. At the Danish Sugar Museum, located close to the sugar factory in Nakskov, you can learn more about the history.
Fire Museum

The Old Smithy
In Tilegade you will find the old smithy, which has been preserved as a working museum from the industrialization era. It's a nice little attraction that gives a vivid picture of the market town functions that were the basis for the city's early industrialization.
