 With a long and broad high quality beach stretching from Skallingen in the south to Nymindegab in the north and with its characteristic look, the coastal area of Varde in the beginning primarily attracted artists, who found inspiration in the landscape and thereby were among the first, together with the bourgeoisie, to initiate the building of cottages for recreational purposes along the coast of Varde.In Denmark in the 1920s the common worker was awarded 2 weeks of vacation, which put the building of cottages along the coast in motion and made the tourism industry in Varde what it is today.A target destination could have been the Henne Mølleå Badehotel (seaside hotel), designed by Poul Henningsen in 1935.
