Monastic lake town and the academy.
— Journey —
1 h from Copenhagen
Sorø, set among lakes in central Zealand, grew around a great Cistercian abbey whose brick church — burial place of medieval kings and of the writer Ludvig Holberg — still dominates the town. The Sorø Academy, founded in the abbey's grounds, is among Denmark's most distinguished schools. FFGR Denmark arranges lakeside visits and provides school-run service.
