Kulturmiljø in Denmark

Vang Granitbrud is a former granite quarry just south of the village of Vang on Bornholm's west coast. Active from the 1880s until 1996, it supplied granite for major Danish construction projects including Copenhagen Town Hall, Christiansborg Palace, the National Museum, and the Great Belt Link bridge. After closure due to economic unviability, the quarry was transformed through a RealDania-funded project into a nature and outdoor recreation area with trails, shelters, climbing walls, and mountain bike routes.
