Located on the north west coast of the island of Zealand, the Danish town of Kalundborg is around 110 km from Copenhagen and is famous for its large broadcasting transmitter and is also home to Denmark's largest coal fire power station. There is evidence in the town of its fortified medieval past, and although no longer there the boundaries can still be recognised. Taking a stroll through the town you will see some fine examples of 16th century buildings. A popular attraction in the town is the beautiful five spired Church of Our Lady which is associated with King Valdemar I and Archbishop Absalon. The city's walls can be found beneath the church, to the north and west. There is also Kalundborg Castle which was reputedly built by King Valdemar Atterdag, and is where kings and noblemen gathered to conduct political negotiations during the 14th and 15th centuries. In times of war, Kalundborg was a military support point of central importance.
Kalundborg has Denmark's largest deep water harbour and a ferry service to Denmark's second largest city Arhus and the island of Samso.
Kolby Kas is a small Danish town and port that is located on the south western coast of Samso Island, which can be easily reached by main road from the nearby towns and villages and is in the Midtjylland region of the country. In terms of its geographical location within Denmark, the region lies between the Danish mainland of Jutland and Zealand and is made up of the island of Samso along with a number of other small islands.
The island is a popular tourist destination, especially it seems with the French, Welsh and Irish, who enjoy the strawberry picking that is on offer during June and July each year. Samso island is also well known in Denmark for its early harvest of new potatoes, the first few pounds of which are considered a delicacy and fetch quite high prices. The island is served by a bus service which runs around the island, including the two ferry terminals in Sælvig and Kolby. In clear weather, the peninsula of Helgenæs to the north is visible.
Ferry services from the town's port provide connections to the city of Kalundborg on Zealand. At Kolby Kas ferry terminal you can park your car, buy tickets and stretch your legs while you wait for the ferry, and continue your journey by bus or taxi.
