The Island Mors

Whether you arrive along the A26 across the spectacular Sallingsund Bridge, or over the iron arched Vildsund Bridge, or with one of the wooden feries over Feggesund or Næssund, 367 km2 of adventure lie before you from the moment you set foot on Mors.











Mors is the largest island in the Limfjord. The nature and landscape will please even the most demanding of nature lovers with its soft moraine hills, wide open spaces, and remnants of the wild moors. Geologically Mors is in a class of its own. The steep coastal cliffs tell the dramatic geological story of more than 55 million years ago.

The population of around 23,000 lives in larger and smaller villages. This dispersment of the inhabitants is characteristic of Mors, which the 34 churches bear withness to.

Northern Mors offers a particular and attractive landscape with traces of the violent forces of nature visible in the extraordinary moler with clay cliffs.

To the south the lush green farm land through which the low lying blue inlets cross alternating with forest areas, a.o. the beautiful Legind Bjerge.

Historically the fjord has been both a challange and a barrier for the people on the island. In 1939 Mors was linked up to the north with the Vildsund Bridge and in 1978 to the south when the Sallingsund Bridge was built.

Mors has been a cradle of inspiration to numerous well-known artists. The many arts and crafts workshops impress an atmosphere of flourishing and creative activity on the island.

Traditionally the island is an agricultural and fishing community. Today fjord fishing concentrates on mussels. Industrially we find furniture factories and metal industry and a typically Danish wealth of small production- and service enterprises.
