Ebeltoft is an old port town on the central east coast of Denmark with a population of 7,211 (1 January 2024).[1] It is located in Syddjurs municipality in Region Midtjylland on the larger Djursland peninsula of Jutland.
Ebeltoft is known for its old town center with cobble-stoned streets and centuries-old half-timbered houses. Plans for the conservation of this peculiar environment, was initiated in the 1960s by the city council and the National Museum of Denmark.[3] Apart from this overall old-village charm, Ebeltoft holds several other notable institutions such as Glasmuseet Ebeltoft, one of the world's first glass museums, Fregatten Jylland, the longest wooden warship in the world and the European Film College, offering short and long courses in film making, especially for young people.
