Tejn is a harbour town on the north-eastern coast of the Danish island of Bornholm, 5 km (3.1 mi) south of Allinge-Sandvig. As of 1 January 2022, it has a population of 858.[1] Initially a fishing village, it grew considerably during the 20th century as the harbour was enlarged on several occasions. The local fishing industry reached its peak in the 1970s and 1980s but has since decreased, with negative implications for the town's activities.[2]

Tourism


The large harbour with both fishing vessels and pleasure craft is an impressive sight. As a result of its westerly location and the protection offered by the surrounding heights, it can be accessed without danger in all weathers. The post mill standing high above the harbour was built around 1800 in Årsballe but some 50 years later it was moved to Tejn where it continued to operate until 1941. Now a listed building, it has been well preserved but is not open to the public. In the adjoining village of Sandkås there are several hotels, guest houses and summer houses overlooking the rocky coastline. Sandkås also has a pleasant sandy beach, the only one suitable for bathing in the area.[3]


Church


Tejn Church, the most recent of Bornholm's churches, was designed in the Functionalist style by Emanuel Grauslund and completed in 1940.[4]

Tejn ist eine kleine Hafenstadt mit 858 Einwohnern (Stand 1. Januar 2022[1]) auf der dänischen Ostseeinsel Bornholm. Die Ortschaft liegt im Kirchspiel Ols (Olsker Sogn), das bis 1970 zur Harde Nørre Herred im damaligen Bornholms Amt gehörte. Mit der Auflösung der Hardenstruktur wurde das Kirchspiel in die Kommune Allinge-Gudhjem aufgenommen, die Kommune wiederum ging nach einer Volksentscheidung zum 1. Januar 2003 mit anderen Kommunen in der Regionskommune Bornholm auf. Zwischen 2003 und 2007 war diese kreisfrei, seit dem 1. Januar 2007 gehört sie zur Region Hovedstaden.
