The home of the famous Danish polar explorer and anthropologist, Knud Rasmussen at Hundested, Zealand, Denmark. (Knud Johan Victor Rasmussen (June 7, 1879 – December 21, 1933). The house is now a museum of arctic exploration and the explorer's life and addiction to wild nature even at his home in Southern Denmark. Situated high on the 30 m tall moraine cliff, Spodsbjerg, there is a fantastic view over the Kattegat Sea from the house. On clear days the island Hesselø 26 km away can be seen. In the centre of the image the 9 m tall Spodsbjerg Lighthouse on top of the cliff half-way to the small charming hamlet Kikhavn. Further left in the distance towards the west-wind-bent tree is the Knud Rasmussen memorial rock cairn raised after his death by Greenland and South- Danish friends in 1936 of rocks from various places in Greenland related to Knud Rasmussen's journeys.
