A brewery, "Maribo Bryghus" used to be located in the town, but it was closed down in 2008 by its owner, Unibrew.

These include the islands of Fruerø, Hestø, Præstø, Borgø, Lindø, Askø and Worsaaes.

[4] King Christian IV's daughter, Leonora Christina Ulfeldt, was probably the abbey's most famous resident.

In 1685 after her release from 21 years imprisonment for high treason from the Blue Tower (Blåtårn) in Copenhagen's Castle, she spent her final years in the then already dilapidated abbey, and was buried in a crypt at the church, until her body was removed shortly after the burial.

Lolland Falster Airport is located south of Maribo between the towns of Holeby and Rødby.
