    I'm an American, I've recently been into my ancestry and have traced my heritage only as far back to the 1500s, they lived in Kvong, Ribe, Denmark... Pretty cool to see the area

    I was looking for options to go to in Denmark this August and Ribe was the first one that got my attention. Seriously thinking of going there, 4 or 5 days. Explore that part of Denmark. It looks lovely! Hopefully the weather will be good.

    Glad you enjoyed your stay in my childhood town. The actual place, where the Wictches were burned and people hanged, is in the forrest North of the town, but there is not much to, just a hill in the forrest. Next time you are in the town. I would reccomend, since you are an american, to visit the Jacob A. Riis Museum. And if your kids are along, the Ribe Vikingecenter, where you can try to dress, live ect. as a Viking

    • @Cindys-bc1dp

      Riis wrote a book in English about Ribe after he moved to the USA. It is titled The Old Town and was published by Macmillan & Co. in 1909. Grateful to Danish friends who gifted us a copy from that year.

    I was in Ribe in 2018, and it was so cool to see all the old buildings and the food there was great too. We also visited Fanø, another great place to see. 🤓👍🏼

    The "Night Watchman" had to sing a special tune for each hour during the night (as at start), to show the inhabitants in town, that he was awake and doing his, well actually their job, as I think they mostly walked two men during nights.

    Hi Kelly you should really take a tour of Søfarts og fiskeri museet in Esbjerg. I believe yoy would find it a great experience and learn a lot of the Danish history of seafairing and fishery

    Didn´t anything at all about Ribe. Have heard about it, but that´s all maybe we visit it because of your video.

    You should really try the vikingetræf Moesgaard. It's amazing, a lot of people come from all over the world to participate. And the museum (moesgård museum) there is so amazing, who knew our ancestors where so short. There's great opportunities for campers to camp.

    my 10th great grandfather too part in a witch trial under Christian the IV. it is written he tried to defend her character but she was burned nonetheless. sad to see the modern art covering what we're probably beautiful catholic artwork before Luther

    HI Kelly I am surprised you didn't mention Jacob A. Riis, who was born in Ribe later emigrated to the US where he became af famous documentarist of the slums in New York

    • @MyNewDanishLife
      @MyNewDanishLife  3 роки тому +1

      I don’t think he is that famous among the general public in the USA. The country is very large, so what happened in NYC isn’t widely known by all Americans. I never heard of him and since our time was limited, we chose the witch museum instead! 🤷🏼‍♀️

      I really like the Weis Stue. It was amazing that we could stay there! :) The walking tour with all of the old buildings and of course, the church were also quite amazing. It is just different to see things that are so old.! :)

    @trold8424 2 роки тому +1

    Weis stue is not great. They treat they workers like shit, and its overall just bad.
    There is a place called Sælhunden which is much better.

    • @MyNewDanishLife
      @MyNewDanishLife  Рік тому

      I loved it! I talk about it all the time, since the meal was so wonderful!

    • @trold8424
      @trold8424 Рік тому

      ​ @My New Danish Life Its not that the Food is bad, I just don't want to support a place that don't care about their workers. I personally worked there and stopped only after 1 month, because the don't give a shit about us. This might have changed but i doubt it.
