BAKKEHUSET

Bakkehuset is an important heritage site with a remarkable story of the Danish Golden Age in the early decades of the 19th century. Here, the couple Kamma and Knud Lyne Rahbek opened their home to the writers, opinion leaders, and scholars of the time, and were visited by many great personalities of the romantic period, such as Hans Christian Andersen and Hans Christian Ørsted. Today, we uphold the tradition of intellectual exchange and creativity through exhibitions, events, and workshops, and a cozy family area inspired by the famous tales of Hans Christian Andersen. The museum has a unique collection of furniture, paintings, books, letters, and personal possessions.

Historically inspired café
A beautiful romantic garden surrounds the museum and our café, the Orangery, which draws inspiration from historical recipes, simple dishes, and local ingredients.
