Description: In the little village of Juvre a fence made of whalejaws stands.
It was build in 1772 at the time when a lot of sailors on the island Romo were whalers and took part in the whaning around Greenland.
At that time stones and wood weren't available so they had to use other, unusual, materials. Whalebones.

The fence is preserved and under protection of the Danish National Museum.
