The beautiful park - Skyttehushaven - is situated on the north-side of Vejle Bay, bordering up to the Nørreskoven forest with only a few kilometers to Vejle city.
In 1914, the area was opened up to the public, as Vejle Municipality bought the garden. Before that time, Vejle Riffle Guild frequented the garden. In 1859, the riffle guild built a shooting range and later that same year the garden’s first building followed. Since then, a dancing pavilion was built in 1868 and in 1881, a music pavilion saw the light of day.
The large, well-trimmed lawn is surrounded by trees and bushes and from early spring to late autumn, the garden is mantled in a true lavishness of flowers. In the early spring, you will find an abundance of daffodils. In late May and early June, the many rhododendrons take over, while the roses bloom at the end of June and last till the autumn.
An old dead tree full of rambling roses is used by guests as a “money tree”, which means that they put coins into cracks and chinks of the tree.
The garden stage is the venue for several concerts throughout the summer and on the Danish Constitution Day June 5 and Midsummer Day June 24, the garden is the home of lots of festiveness. The riffle guilds still host shooting events in the garden.
The garden is also the home of several playgrounds, an aviary and nest boxes. Along the bay, you will find benches.
Today, Restaurant Skyttehuset is domiciled in the actual building called “Skyttehuset”. |
