The Tørskind gravel pit is a former gravel pit that was converted into a sculpture park with works of steel, granite and wood by the artist Robert Jacobsen (1912-1993) and his pupil, the French Jean Clareboudt (1944-97). The sculpture park was created between 1986 and 1991. The theme of the sculpture park is the sun that rises across the sky during the day.

Every Wednesday from May to September you can see old cars and motorbikes from 17:00 to 20:00. It is private owned cars and motorbikes so could be that they not all are there for four hours, but there would always be something to see. When the weather is good (no rain) they barbecue so you can buy sausages and bread
