Mariager – part of Cittaslow

Mariager is part of the international Cittaslow network, which is based on the idea of The Good Life. It is about preserving the town’s unique qualities and creating a welcoming environment for both residents and visitors.

Cittaslow grew out of the Slow Food movement and is based on values such as quality of life, local identity and a strong sense of community. The network focuses on areas including the environment and energy, mobility, urban life, local food and crafts, hospitality and social cohesion.

In Mariager, the Cittaslow philosophy fits naturally with the town’s distinctive character. The historic town centre, old streets and buildings, local communities and proximity to Mariager Fjord are all part of an identity that the town aims to preserve and develop.

In short, Cittaslow is about The Good Life – with a focus on quality, local connections and the distinctive character of the area.
