Torsted Memorial

Distance: 16.14 Km

During the Second World War, Torsted, west of Spjald, was one of the places where British planes dropped weapons and explosives on the Danish resistance movement. Here, 29 resistance fighters put their lives on the line in connection with receiving weapon drops and subsequent storage of weapons and explosives.

Torsted Parish Association has placed a 12 ton heavy memorial stone with an inscription in Torsted. The stone is located at Torsted's former utility association.
