It may surprise some Americans to know that the Fourth of July is not just celebrated in America, but around the world. And the biggest celebration of American Independence Day outside the United States takes place in the hills of Jutland in Denmark, where thousands of people have gathered every year since 1912 to celebrate the day in true American style.

The Rebild Society – A Danish-American Friendship Organisation

In a story that was repeated throughout Europe in the 1800 and 1900s, many Danes bid farewell to friends and family who set off for America to build a new life for themselves, often never to return. The Rebild Society was founded in order to provide a place for Danish Americans meet with the friends and loved ones they left behind in Denmark.

The place they chose was the peaceful hilly moorland in Jutland known as Rebild Bakker (bakker means hills in Danish). A collection was taken up by Danish Americans to purchase 190 acres of the property, which was then presented to the Danish government as a national park for the purpose of Danish born Americans to celebrate Independence Day and other American holidays there. The park is open all year round to the public who are free to enjoy its natural beauty.
