Ceramic Askel Krog

In the front yard of Askel Krog's ceramics workshop, there are some giant pots and smaller ones, bearing witness to the fact that a former potter lives here.

Askel Krog's pottery residence in Vesthimmerland is not far from Alfarvej, near Strandby, well on the other side of Farsø. From the gable window of his exhibition space, there is a wide view over the wetlands of the Limfjord, which appear to approach the house dangerously during high tide. The air is humid, and the gravel road to the house consists mainly of brown clayey puddles, a sign of Askel Krog's profession.

Although there is a pottery shop and the exhibition space on the first floor with the best view in the world, it may not exactly be a bustling commercial area, as it's darn difficult to find. However, there is a solution. Just as Hansel and Gretel in the fairy tale scattered breadcrumbs on forest paths to find their way home, Askel Krog has also left traces to his home. In Strandby, near the church where you have to turn left, it becomes clear that you are on the right track, as surprisingly, there is a huge yellow ceramic pot, followed by more along the small roads, rendering the small signs with the word "Keramik" and an arrow entirely unnecessary.
