Accessibility
The museum is located in a listed building from 1787 and does not have an elevator or wheelchair lift. Exhibitions are spread over three floors with stairs—some without handrails. Unfortunately, this means the museum is not accessible to everyone. We acknowledge this challenge and are working on long-term solutions.
Please note:
– Visitors with mobility difficulties are advised to bring a companion.
– Strollers and pushchairs are not allowed inside but can be stored in the foyer. Please ask staff.
– Rollators and wheelchairs are not allowed for safety reasons.
Hidden Disabilities
We are part of the Sunflower Program. Staff are trained to support guests with hidden disabilities. Sunflower lanyards are available at ticket sales and can be worn by guests who need extra time, patience, or assistance during their visit.
Autism-Friendly Guide:
In collaboration with AutismGoTo, we have developed a guide to help guests with autism plan and carry out their visit. Find the guide here (in Danish)
Service dogs are welcome. Other animals are not allowed.
Bags
Small handbags are allowed in the exhibitions. Larger bags, backpacks, and suitcases must be stored in lockers. Please ask staff for assistance.
