The history of Bov Kro is also the history of Hærvejen, the ancient route running through Jylland from Viborg to Slesvig.

As early as 1566, Bov Kro was granted a royal privilege – making it one of the very first inns in Denmark. The Danish hospitality is still very much alive at Bov Kro. Following a series of renovations and extensions, the inn today combines historical atmosphere with modern comfort in an elegant way. The inn has 17 double rooms. All rooms feature a private entrance, bathroom, toilet, and flat-screen TV.

The good old traditions live on in the inn’s restaurant, which serves traditional Danish inn cuisine as well as New Nordic dishes in the à la carte restaurant, known for its high quality standards. The culinary delights are created in a modern kitchen, where baking and preserving are also carried out according to old traditions.

Bov Kro is located just a few kilometres from the Danish-German border, making it an excellent base for exploring the historic border region. Nearby attractions include Dybbøl Mølle, Gråsten Slot, and Sønderborg Slot. It only takes a few minutes by car to reach Flensborg, and the many border shops are almost right around the corner.

If you feel like going for a walk, you can follow the Gendarmstien along the Flensborg Fjord. For those interested in history, Frøslevlejren is only 3 km away – a camp built by the German occupying forces to house prisoners of war.
