Anholt Inn - Hans and his dog

I had noticed that Anholt Inn accepted artmoney as part payment. So, I contacted the owner of Anholt Inn, Hans, to find out if it was really true.

SEE THE FILM HERE

This summer, I visited the Danis island of Anholt, which is located in the waters of Kattegat. It was an interesting visit, with meetings with interesting people and trips into breathtaking landscapes. Together with some friends, we rented bikes and came by Anholt Inn, where we dropped in for a damn good cup of coffee!

I had noticed that Anholt Inn accepted artmoney as part payment. So, I contacted the owner of Anholt Inn, Hans, to find out if it was really true.

And it was!

He had accepted artmoney for a number of years and had a box on display, with the artmoney for sale that he had received over the years.

I was allowed to make a small film and write some words about Anholt Inn and here follows my warmest recommendation. Anholt Inn is definitely worth a visit!

Hans was a former pig farmer and operated a farm on Helgenæs/Denmark for 25 years. When he was tired of the modern pig production, he found work at the Inn, Molskroen, where he stayed for six years. It was here that he learned everything about running an Inn.

The next step he took when he acquired Anholt Inn and became an independent Inn owner. This happened in 2006, so this year, Hans has operated Anholt Inn for 10 years.

All types of people visit Anholt Inn. Representatives from the entire society. And it suites Hans well. He seemed to me, as a man who understands people. A man who has tried a little of everything and has come to terms with his profession as the owner of an Inn. I asked his dog whether it agreed. And it did!

Happy summer greetings!
