I vesterhavsbyen Thyborøn ligger det lille museum Ravhuset.
Ravhuset er et unikt foretagende startet af Rav-Aage og videreført af sønnen Bjarne Hansen, og det indeholder en fantastisk udstilling af rav i alle farver, udformninger og størrelser. Ravet er mellem 35- og 200 mio. år gammelt.
Herudover rummer museet historien om Rav-Aage og hans liv, hans rav og hans miljøkamp, for hvilken han i 1996 fik ridderkorset.
In Thyboroen lies the small museum: Ravhuset.
Ravhuset is a unique enterprise initiated by Rav-Aage and continued by his son Bjarne Hansen, and it involves a fantastic amber exhibition of amber in all colours, shapes and sizes. The amber is between 35 and 200 million years old, which is why you will marvel at them because of the huge time perspective.
In addition, the museum depicts the story about Rav-Aage and his life, his amber and his environmental battle, for which he received the Knight's Cross in 1996.
