Odense Workhouse
Klaregade 36, 5000 Odense C - Denmark

Map
 
 
Just across the river from Munke Mose Park lies an attractive large building. Built in the eighteenth century it is painted yellow and half-timbered. Quaint as it appears, its history was rather unpleasant for those forced to live and work here. This was a workhouse designed as a correctional facility for the idle poor and petty criminals. The inhabitants were subjected to a gruelling regime of hard labour in order to earn their meagre rations. A plaque on the outside of the building testifies to its past.
