CISTERNERNE

Deep beneath the green lawns of Søndermarken lies a vast underground world. Here, darkness, cold, and dampness envelop you as you venture into the 4,400 m² old water reservoir that once supplied the capital with clean drinking water. Today, Cisternerne acts as a spectacular setting for art exhibitions and events, where the singularity of its architecture and atmosphere remains a core attraction.

Jakob Kudsk Steensen: Psychosphere
In 2025, Cisternerne presents the immersive installation Psychosphere by artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen. The exhibition is based on the artist’s own fieldwork as it transforms the underground space of Cisternerne into a portal to the deep sea. Here, video projections, sound, light and sculpture form a narrative about the profound interconnectedness shared by all living species on Earth. You can experience the exhibition until November 30.

Opening hours: Tuesday-Wednesday 11-18. Thursday 11-20. Friday-Sunday 11-18. Monday closed.
