The village
The majority of the residents of Lyø live in the only village on the island, Lyø By. Here you will find a grocer anda café. The church is a little unusual, because men and women are sitting on either side during the service like in the old days. The church is built in the middle of the round churchyard.
The structure of the island is particularly interesting. The farms are still placed in the village like in the days before the Danish enclosure movement. The long fronts of the houses facing the street, the village ponds and the winding roads contribute to the special atmosphere that has made Lyø famous
