Key facts

• Character: Harbour town on the northeast coast of Bornholm.
• History: Tejn originated as a fishing village and grew as the harbour was expanded; fishing shaped the town particularly during the 20th century.
• Location: Tejn lies roughly between Allinge-Sandvig, Gudhjem and Rønne. Approximately 4 km to Allinge-Sandvig and 11 km to Gudhjem provide a rough indication of the distances.

Harbour town with history and a local cultural landmark

The harbour connects Tejn’s historic ties to fishing with the town’s maritime life. This history gives your stay a clear local connection and makes Tejn a suitable choice for travellers who plan their holiday not only around accommodation but also around the character of the town.

A specific local cultural landmark is Tejn Church. It was built in 1940 in a functionalist design. The historic Tejn Mill is also part of the region’s history, but it is no longer located in Tejn today: it was moved to Melstedgård near Gudhjem.

Tejn and the nearby coastal landscape

The Helligdomsklipperne are located between Gudhjem and Tejn and combine a distinctive coastal landscape with regional history. Those wishing to combine their stay in Tejn with this excursion destination can enjoy a coherent combination of a local harbour town and nearby countryside in the wider area. The cliffs are not located in Tejn, but between the two towns.

Which accommodation suits your travel plans?

Tejn is particularly well suited to a trip centred on a small harbour town, coastal surroundings and local discoveries. A holiday apartment or holiday home in Tejn is therefore especially interesting if your travel plans combine the harbour town itself with excursions in the nearby area between Tejn and Gudhjem.
