The City of Specialists
A passion for craft
In Middelfart, small independent specialty stores are found in pedestrian streets and in the rest of the municipality. The pedestrian street runs parallel to the harbor promenade. Here, a ceramicist makes pottery and a café brews coffee slowly. A little further down the street, you will find a design store and a chocolate workshop. Stores run by people who care deeply about what they do.
Middelfart calls itself the City of Specialists – and it's not just a slogan. It's a description of people running businesses with a genuine love for their craft.
Behind the facades of the historic buildings, courtyards hide even more workshops and niche stores – ones you find when you take the time to look through the gates. The pedestrian street borders Middelfart Gl. Havn, and from the store windows and cafés you have a view of both Lillebælt bridges. That's the kind of view that turns a shopping trip into something more. Middelfart's stores range from applied arts and local food to fashion and gastronomy – all within walking distance.
Free parking is available in the town center.
