Tickets
Food and Drink
You’re welcome to bring your own food. We have a lunch room where you can eat. You can also dine at Restaurant Smör, located at the museum. Here, you can enjoy modern interpretations of classic Danish dishes - especially smørrebrød (open-faced sandwiches). The culinary experience revolves around solid craftsmanship, sustainability, and local, seasonal, often organic ingredients.
