The sunset square has a spectacular view of the North Sea and the sunset.

For many, the sunset square is associated with a very special atmosphere with breathtaking sunsets that exude Skagen poetry all year round. Every evening, people flock to the square to enjoy the very special light from the sun's last rays as they dance over the sea.

These poetic moments deserve a beautiful framing, and we have now got that with a brand new Sunset Square designed by Kristine Jensens Tegnestue in collaboration with sculptor Ingvar Cronhammar.

The "new" Sunset Square consists of a large sloping Sun Disc with carved granite circles, where the sun is reflected as sunspots as it sets.

A long bench has been set up around the square, winding around the sun disk. Here you can put your bike into the slats of the bench on one side.

The sunset square is also framed by brand new dunes that will create shelter in the open space.

The framing thus beautifully interacts with the natural surroundings, so the stage is now set for several breathtaking moments in Old Skagen.

So sit back and enjoy life while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
