Allinge-Sandvig is a small town on the northern coast of the Baltic island of Bornholm, Denmark. Its population is 1,457 (1 January 2024).[1] It was part of the former municipality Allinge-Gudhjem. Sandvig is the northernmost part of the town.

History

Prior to Allinge and Sandvig becoming urban areas, people in the Bronze Age lived there and made rock carvings at Madsebakke.[2] Not all carvings of ships, suns, and footprints have survived, however. Late in the 19th century, stone quarries flourished in the area and some rock carvings were blown up between 1885 and 1902.[3]

Allinge and Sandvig were two separate towns, the former formed near the natural harbour on the northwestern coast,[4] while Sandvig has been a small fishing village, whose origins can be traced to the Middle Ages, its name derived from a sandy cove on the coast.[4] The port of Allinge dates from 1862, while that of Sandvig from 1831-33.
