The Dyssekilde ecological community (Økosamfundet Dyssekilde, also called ØD) is a village built exclusively of ecological materials and which produces its own energy.
A variety of buildings with organic shops and a range of delicious organic goods. There are guided tours in the summertime.
In the beautiful nature, close to the ocean, lies the organic village Dyssekilde. Here, just under 200 residents live in terraced houses, self-built houses and experimental houses built from recycled materials. Everyone is welcome to visit the organic village and see for themselves how life can be lived ecologically and sustainably. In addition to the special houses, you can also visit more artists and the café Torup Spisehus.
