Læsø Efterskole, formerly known as Gammelgaard, has entered an exciting new phase. Originally converted into a holiday center, the school's direction has now changed to serve as a secondary school for young people. The board of Læsø Efterskole has been working intensively to open the school for the school year 24-25. However, due to an insufficient number of registrations, the opening has been postponed to August 2025. This allows the school time to finalize necessary preparations and recruit more students and staff. We look forward to creating a vibrant and inspiring environment for young people that benefits both them and the Læsø community. What to Expect: Upon your arrival, you will be greeted by the school principal, responsible for renting out the small apartments and rooms to future students. He is also available to assist as needed, ensuring your stay is as comfortable as possible. The accommodations are well-equipped and provide everything you need for your stay. We prioritize personal care and are available at all times to ensure your stay on Læsø is an unforgettable experience.
