The Duck Decoys are located between Rindby and Sønderho.
A duck decoy is a kind of large scale trap consisting of a pond from which side canals lead off, constructed in order to catch wild ducks. Fanø was one of the few places in Denmark where six duck decoys were constructed. Some of these were in use until 1931, when the use of duck decoys was prohibited by revision of the game legislation.
The Albue Duck Decoy is situated in a beautiful, protected area at the Albue Bay. Today it is a museum. The duck decoy is open for guests: Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 1.30 p.m. – 5 p.m. in the period from June 29th to September 3rd and October 19th to 22nd .. Admission: 15 DKK for adults, 10 DKK for children. There are benches and tables where you can have a picnic.
The Sønderho Old Duck Decoy has recently been renovated and there is an ongoing exhibition, where you can learn about the duck decoys, nature and birds. From the bird watching tower you have a beautiful view over the Wadden Sea. You get to the decoy by following the path from the parking lot close to the road between Nordby and Sønderho.
