Land of Legends | A Land to Explore — Attraction in Lejre Kommune

Dear Land of Legends Team,

I am writing to share my disappointment following a recent visit to your park, which unfortunately did not live up to the experience promised either in your promotional materials or by your staff. I hope this message reaches the appropriate team, as I would appreciate being contacted directly regarding this matter.

I visited Land of Legends with multiple children and paid approximately $200 USD for admission. Upon our arrival, I asked the woman at the front desk about which activities were taking place that day. Rather than providing clear information, she was curt and dismissive, telling me that I would “just have to see inside,” but reassured me that there would be “tons of things to do” and several hours of hands-on activities.

However, once inside the park, we quickly learned that most of the interactive programs had been canceled. I was told by one staff member that the train from Copenhagen was not running, and that many staff had been unable to show up for work as a result. A different staff member told us there were only six staff members available that day. Across multiple stations, we received inconsistent explanations from different employees, each giving a different reason for why so few activities were happening and why staffing was so limited.

Crucially, none of this was disclosed at the entrance when I specifically asked. Had I been told the truth, I would not have proceeded with full admission for my group. Instead, we entered expecting a full day of engagement and were met with a park that felt largely non-functional.

The few activities that were open — such as the clay workshop and yarn workshop — were poorly staffed and lacked the welcoming, educational environment that I had anticipated. At both, we were met with disinterest. The young woman with curly hair working those areas seemed annoyed when I asked her to demonstrate some of the activities for my children. We had a similar experience near the fire pit, where staff seemed disengaged and only reluctantly responded when we asked them to explain the purpose of the station.

Most of what remained were passive features: a few sandpits, a couple of rowboats, and playground-like areas that, while quaint, were simply not worth the cost of admission. Though it was momentarily interesting to observe families vacationing in Iron Age dress, this element did little to make up for the lack of meaningful programming.

I find it especially troubling that I was misled at the front desk. I asked about the schedule specifically to make an informed decision and was not only denied that information but given false reassurance. Transparency and honesty are critical in settings like this — especially when guests are traveling with children and paying a significant sum.

I respectfully request that your team follow up with me regarding this issue. I hope this feedback will be taken seriously, and that better procedures will be put in place for communicating disruptions or limited operations to future guests.

Thank you for your time. Please respond with a manager to contact and I...

Travel back in time. This place is amazing. We spend here all day with v3 girls age 7 to 10 from the minute they opened until they closed and we haven't been able to discover everything. From making flower and baking bread, to canoeing, dressing up the whole family in ancient cloth, treasure hunting, wearing Viking armour and many more activities, this place is full of fun and excitement. Many activities take place outside and it can be a bit tricky on a rainy day. The staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. My daughter lost her hat and after having been round asking everybody the hat eventually was found by a staff member and the lady traced us down the whole territory to pass it back to my daughter. Thanks to all the staff member. Don’t miss the “Landbohusene”. We were there Easter time and the kids learned to dye eggs with natural ingredients. All in all a day worthwhile spent. Dress warm when visiting off summer and you will have...

My family and I absolutely loved visiting here! We only found it by chance- it’s about 45 minutes away from Copenhagen. Everyone who worked there was so kind, welcoming and happy to share their knowledge! Two memories of this adventure stand out most to me- first, I had such an interesting and long conversation with a Cultural Historian who worked in the Viking Hall. She explained history of who the hall would have been used and the intricate symbolism of the architecture. We also discussed the engineering of the building. She was such a pleasure to talk to!

My second favorite memory was seeing how meals were made in true medieval fashion. We were invited to watch them extract food from an old fashioned “oven” (see pictures). We watched as they pulled out bread, meats and soup… so cool to see!

I highly HIGHLY recommend everyone come here to learn about...
