Velkommen til Solvang!

Welcome to Solvang, California

Solvang (Danish for 'sunny field') is a beautiful little city nestled in the Santa Ynez Valley of California. Founded in 1911 by a small group of Danish teachers, Solvang now is a diverse, modern city, with fine restaurants, lovely shops and outstanding activities to enchant young and old alike.


There are Danish festivals, quiet tree lined streets, horse drawn wagons, Hans Christian Andersen Park, windmills, Danish pastries and dozens of quaint shops to explore. Solvang was incorporated as a city on May 1, 1985 and now has a population of approximately 5,555.

 

Newsflash

The City of Solvang is very excited to announce the recent City Council approval of the Sunny Fields Landscape and Hardscape Project. As part of the project the Solvang Parks and Recreation Department created the Sunny Fields Gift Catalog, which allows the public the opportunity to donate to the park’s completion. The public may donate items in a loved one’s name and all donors will be recognized on a universal plaque. More information is available by clicking the picture below.
