Vang

Few settlements in Denmark’s Capital Region have a history as closely tied to granite quarrying and Baltic Sea fishing as Vang. On Bornholm’s northwestern coast, this small harbour community meets the Baltic beneath steep, rocky slopes, in a part of the island defined by exposed granite rather than broad beaches. The former Vang granite quarry recalls an industry that shaped the local economy and terrain. Nearby stand the ruins of Hammershus, a medieval fortress overlooking the coast and one of Bornholm’s defining historic sites.
