In the center of town near the marketplace stands Faaborg's major landmark, an old belfry which is all that remains from the Church of St. Nicolai, the town's first church, which was built in the 16th century but demolished by 1600 because of structural flaws. For reasons known only…
Faaborg Nightlife
Our leading choice for a drink in comfy and historic surroundings is the recommended restaurant Tre Kroner. Even during peak dinner hours, someone is likely to be here just for drinks, and after the rush of the evening meal service ends (around 9:15pm), the entire place is reinvented as a hard-drinking pub until closing at around midnight.
A viable competitor for the after-dark favors of Faaborgians is The Train, Banegårdspladsen 21 (no phone), occupying a former movie theater. Its pub section opens daily at noon and continues until at least midnight. Live music is heard on Fridays and Saturdays 9pm till closing. A weekend nightclub transforms the place into a rock-'n'-roll emporium every Friday and Saturday 10pm to around 6am, and admission to the club ranges from DKK30 to DKK70 ($5.10-$12/£3-£7).
