Sønderho Old Bird Trap on Fanø

A duck decoy is a large scale trap with netted, curving pipes running off a pond. It was used to catch ducks for food, however, today the decoy is a living museum.

Fanø was the only location in Denmark for four decoys to be constructed, two of which were in use until 1931 when the original use and purpose of decoys was prohibited.

The decoy is open every day. Dogs are allowed but must be in a leash.

Sønderho Old Duck Decoy is open all day long - please remember to close the door. Entrance is free.
