Drachmanns Hus
The former home of Danish poet and painter Holger Drachmann, with his study, paintings and garden preserved.
Holger Drachmann was a leading Danish poet and marine painter of the late 19th century, and one of the core members of the Skagen Painters. He lived here from 1902, and after his death he was buried in the Grenen dunes as he had wished. The house preserves his furniture, letters, paintings and garden, showing both his creative work and his daily life. It is small and suits visitors interested in the Skagen Painters. You can buy a combined ticket to visit it together with the Skagen Museum and the Ancher House. It is located on the west side of the town centre, close to the harbour.
