What to Know About Fur

Key Facts

Fur is a small island and parish located in the Limfjord in northwestern Denmark, forming part of Skive Municipality in the Midtjylland region. Geographically positioned about 5 kilometers north of the mainland town of Skive, Fur is situated in the central part of the Limfjord, Denmark's largest fjord system that bisects the Jutland peninsula. The island covers an area of approximately 22 square kilometers and has a population of around 800 residents, making it one of the smaller inhabited islands in Denmark. Fur is administratively divided into a single parish and falls entirely within Skive Municipality, which is responsible for local governance and services. The island is particularly notable for its unique geological features, including extensive deposits of moler (diatomaceous earth) that contain well-preserved fossils from the Eocene epoch, approximately 55 million years ago. These fossil-rich clay deposits have made Fur a significant site for paleontological research and attract scientific interest from around the world. The island's landscape is characterized by rolling hills, coastal cliffs, and agricultural land, with fishing and tourism serving as important economic activities alongside traditional farming. Visitors can access Fur via a frequent car ferry service from Branden on the mainland, which operates throughout the year.
