Thisted

The old market town is situated at the Limfjord and has a long tradition about local flavors. Thisted is home of the local Thisted Brewery which has been voted for the "Danish Brewery of the year" from the consumer association Danish Beer Enthusiast three times in a row (2015-2017). But the town offers also a lot of other local flavors like ice cream and candy, which is produced as in the old days.

Things to see and do
