that indicates that the value is not ready - of you to a .ToString() (without format) you will see the value is most likely 1900-01-01 00:00:00

Do you have a typo in you property alias?

You're using Model.Content but you seem to be looping through content.. are you sure you should not have something like

currentEventItem.GetPropertyValue

I think you're getting the createDate of the event listing page each time rather than the one for each event.

Did you try @item.GetPropertyValue<DateTime>("createDate").ToString("dd. MMMM", new CultureInfo("da-dk")))

I think CreateDate is a Umbraco-property, so you can do:

@item.CreateDate.ToString("dd. MM")

If you've got a single language site, you can also set the default language to danish. In the "Settings"-section under Language you probably got English. Click on it at select danish from the dropdown. You could also add Danish as a language in the same place and on your root-node in "Content" right-click and selevt "Set domain". Here you also can select one of the installed languages.
