Water is Coming
October 7, 2024 – March 23, 2025
Poles are melting, groundwater is rising, and torrential rain is flooding roads and houses. It’s no longer a question of if, but when the water is coming – and how we adapt.
So Danish!

The exhibition unfolds the history of Danish architecture from the Viking Age to present day and gives you the opportunity to travel into the architecture and understand how absolutely vital it is to our democratic society.

Fall at DAC
Darkness is setting in, along with rain and colder days. Danish Architecture Center invites everyone to a wet and wonderful fall filled with exciting architectural experiences.
Explore our new exhibition Water is Coming, where we dive into where and how we should live when the water truly arrives. You can also visit So Danish!, which is reopening with even more architectural history and design. If you have children with you, stop by our family workshop, where you can help the fish by creating fish hotels and building solutions like a LEGO® architect to plan where we should live when the water comes.
The City Map
Start your exploration of Copenhagen’s architecture on the floor just beneath BLOX. Here, you can walk around on a gigantic aerial photo of the city and get a complete overview. At the same time, it gives you the feeling of being a giant, stomping around – high above the city.
