At the Reunion Square in Christiansfeld a large reunion monument was inaugurated on 10 July 1935 initiated by the citizens of Christiansfeld.
The monument shows symbolically how "Mother Denmark" greets here kidnapped daughter, South Jutland. The relief personifies "Mother Denmark" and "South Jutland" as two women, who reach out to each other and meet in the embrace of an angel. The relief is made in a simple monumental and epic syle. The stirring reunion is described, so that both the human and pesonal dimension of the reunion are in focus, and at the same time the underlying faith and love of God is cemented.
The Reunion Square and the monument are established in memorial of the reunion on 10 July 1920, when South Jutland was reunited with Denmark after 56 years of Prussian rule.
The words of the inscription on the reverse of the stone are as follows: "This is the behest of this stone: Here the storm, here the flame have gathered those, who belong together. God be praised!"
The momument was carved by Mr. N. Skovgaard-Andersen and was donated by the New Carlsberg Foundation.

Skamlingsbanken is especially known for the national festivals, which took place during the years 1843-59 in support of the Danish cause in South Jutland.
At the top of the Hill of Skamling (Højskamling) stands a 16 metres high monument made of 25 granite blocks in memory of the fighters for the Danish cause in Schleswig. The monument lists 18 names of men, who in one way or the other had made an effort for Danish language or Danishness in Schleswig, or South Jutland as it was again started to be called. The memorial was erected in 1863, blown up by the Prussians in 1864 and erected again in 1866. This reerection was possible, because people in the area, had collected and hidden the stones.

Near the memorial there are six other monuments and a platform made of large field stones. Round the platform are five groups of trees symbolizing the inseparability of the five Scandinavian countries. The trees are: Beech (Denmark), birch (Sweden), fir (Norway, juniper (Finland) and rowan (Iceland).

At Skamlingsbanken there is also the bell frame, which is a memorial for the freedom fighters, who fell in South Jutland during WW II. It was erected in 1948

Christinero
All year round it is an experience to visit Christinero, the small preserved park south-west of Christiansfeld, which is owned by the Moravian brethren.


Many people felt drawn by the spirit and doctrine of the Moravian Brethren. One of them was Christina Friderica the wife of Chamberlain von Holstein, who in 1777, was repudiated by the King. According to Ms. von Holstein's wish, the couple bought an estate near Christiansfeld and it was here that she devoted her life to the munificent work for the sick, old and poor people.

Close to the estate, Ms. von Holstein established the park Christinero with various different houses; a chapel for the daily prayers, a pavilion with birds in aviaries and a cooking house, where coffee and tea was served. She cherished the place so much that, by her own wishes - and with Royal permission - Ms. von Holstein was buried in the park. She herself called the park "My Thoughts" and not until after her death, was it given the name
Christinero.

There are approximately 5 kilometres of exceptional walking trails throughout the park. Walk along twisted paths through a fantastically wooden landscape with lead past small ponds with natural fountains and knotty beeches. Continue along to come to the cooking house, the pavilion and the chapel, all of which have been very well-preserved. The wood is filled with many different types of trees which the missionaries of the Moravian Brethren brought back to Ms. von Holstein from their many travels abroad
