Is this Denmark? And if so, where?

  1. The flowers hanging from the buildings and the shape of the church and clock tower spires would indicate south Germany or Austria.

  2. This is not Denmark because of the trees and we do not have that sort in Denmark, furthermore I really don’t know what I’m talking about!

  3. Looks a bit like Vesterland on Sylt. Also if you have the number plates of that Volvo without censorship you could probably determine the country at least.

  4. This gives me a Southern German vibe due to the shutters and the flowers around the windows.

    One thing I haven’t seen mentioned is that the sign on the square is set on a pupitre / riddling rack, which is used when making sparkling wine. I’ve often seen these used as signs for Wine Bars, but because they’re more expensive than regular signs, they’re hardly used for anything else.

    So either a wine bar nearby, maybe you’re even in a wine making region.

  5. Where did you find the photo? Google image search didn’t give any useful results.

    Shutters on the windows… Not Denmark

    Flowers hanging from the windows… Not Denmark

    Square wooden lamppost… Not Denmark

    Information sign… Never seen any just like that in Denmark

    Colored flags and light-bulbs hung like that in public… Nah, not Denmark

    The roof and clock on the upper far left… Atypical for Denmark

    Over one of the roofs on the center-right side I see something green, could just be tall trees, but I think they are mountains or large hills somewhere in the background; definitely not Denmark!

    From the style of the buildings, the roofs, the shutters, flowers hanging from the windows and even the information sign I guesstimate this is some small-to-mid-sized town in rural southern Germany… *Maybe* somewhere in Austria. I guess one could try to calculate the latitude based on the fact that it looks like this could be taken in the first half of September maybe, slightly yellow leaves, around solar noon based on the shadows and satellite dish, estimating the height of the trees… Nah, not going to go there!
