Christiansø
Christiansø is a beautifully preserved 17th-century island fortress, an hour’s sail north-east of Bornholm. The entire island is an unspoiled reserve - no cars or modern buildings and no cats or dogs. Christiansø (population 100), is connected to its sister island, Frederiksø, by a footbridge.
Christiansø’s Store TÃ¥rn (Great Tower), built in 1684, is an impressive structure with a 25 metre diameter. The tower’s century-old lighthouse offers a splendid 360 degree view of the island. The Lille TÃ¥rn (Little Tower) on Frederiksø dates from 1685, and is the site of the local-history museum.
