Christmas
Christmas has arrived at the Danish Architecture Center. Inside, you’ll find inspiration, experiences, and creative activities for the whole family – all centered around architecture.
In the weeks leading up to Christmas and New Year, we invite visitors of all ages to enjoy cozy holiday activities and exciting architectural experiences. Discover our new exhibition Age of Nature, which explores the relationship between architecture, nature, people, and biodiversity. You can also trace the development of Danish architecture from the Viking Age to today in the exhibition So Danish!
Holiday Fun for the Whole Family
If you’re bringing kids, don’t miss our family workshop, where you can draw inspiration from the natural world to create Christmas decorations, holiday cards, and playful New Year’s hats. During your visit you can enjoy delicious seasonal food and the scent of Christmas spices in our café overlooking the city – and find gifts for everyone in the family at the DAC Design Shop.
New Year’s Special in DAC Café
Start the new year on a festive note with a special offer in DAC Café. Until New Year’s Eve, enjoy a glass of cava and our chef’s homemade kransekage for just DKK 95. Stop by and celebrate surrounded by architecture.
