"That hits the mark!"

The Bowling Alley in Nyvang

The bowling alley in Nyvang originates from Restaurant Linden in Holbæk. The restaurant was originally called Café Linden and was inaugurated in 1909. A year later, it was expanded with a bowling alley. In 1971, the old alley was replaced with a new one of the same type and appearance. At the same time, the alley was equipped with automatic pin-setting. Over time, several bowling clubs have been associated with it. You can see some of the club signs on the walls inside the bowling alley building.

The building housing the bowling alley was newly constructed in 2015 but follows the same dimensions as the original bowling alley house at Linden.

A bit about the game of skittles

The game of skittles came to Denmark in the mid-1800s. It quickly became popular as entertainment in private gardens and on bowling alleys at inns. Later, it also became an organized sport. In the 1960s, bowling really took off in Denmark and began to overshadow the game of skittles. Bowling is an American development of skittles. In bowling, nine pins have become ten, and the ball has become larger and now includes grip holes.

Oplevelsescenter Nyvang
Nyvangs Allé 4

Oplevelsescenter Nyvang is located outside Holbæk, close to the highway.

We have a large parking lot right by the entrance, so there is always space for your car.

We also offer parking for buses as well as handicap parking.

Accessibility

We have several accessible parking spaces close to the Welcome Center.

It is easy to get around the area with a wheelchair or walker, and many of the buildings are accessible. However, there are some places where creating a wheelchair-friendly entrance was not possible. Please feel free to contact the office for any questions or guidance.

We have a limited number of wheelchairs available for loan with prior reservation.

It is also possible to take a tour around Nyvang with our golf cart. For more information, contact our administration at +45 5943 4030 or nyvang@andelslandsbyen.dk.

You can enjoy delicious Danish dishes at our eatery, Traktørsted Madam Blaa.

You are also very welcome to bring your own food and enjoy it at one of the rest areas in the grounds.

If it rains and there are no other activities taking place in the community hall, it is also possible to eat your packed lunch there. (New activities are constantly being added, so it is not possible to reserve a spot in the community hall in advance for eating packed lunches.)

In rainy weather, smaller groups can find shelter for eating their packed lunches in the houses at the Activity Area.

You are very welcome to bring your dog to the area, but it must be kept on a leash.

Dogs are not allowed inside our buildings (service dogs are exempt).
