Frilandsmuseet Herning

Just a stroll away from the shopping streets of Herning you can step 200 years back into history. The open air museum of Herning offers a genuine old-fashioned village atmosphere, as it shows the country life the way it was lived on the heath in the 19th century. Frilandsmuseet Herning gives you a unique opportunity to experience rural life as it was lived back in the day on the heath in Central and West Jutland.You can also experience the WW2 apartment and the exhibition of the folklorist Evald Tang Kristensen – or explore the Jens Nielsen’s Farm, which is one of the museum’s most popular attractions, especially for children. Here, more than 100 different diorama boxes show the life and the passing of the year at a farm in the early 1900s.

Tekstilmuseet

At Tekstilmuseet you will get close to history of the textile industry in Central Jutland and experience how the boom of the 1950s really set off the area and made Central Jutland go worldwide. In the authentic factory halls of the old Herning Cloth Factory you can experience the exhibition Made in Midtjylland, where we tell the story of how the textile industry changed Central Jutland from the 1950s and onwards. Children can get to work at the Children’s factory, you can study the Hammerum Girl’s almost 2000 years old dress or immerse yourself in the large machines in the spinning mill, which produce textile products for the museum’s shop.

Herningsholm Museum

Herningsholm Museum is located in Herning’s oldest building from 1579. At the old manor you can explore life on the heath and the role it played in the textile industry, which later came to characterise the area. At Herningsholm Museum you can get close to the author Steen Steensen Blicher, experience the evocative paintings of the heath painters or study the manor’s beautiful rooms and old murals up close. But you can also experience the story of a manor, that went from housing a small army and guns to creating a large business based on sheep and woolen socks – and which became the start of the textile industry in Central Jutland.

Skovsnogen - Deep Forest Artland

Skovsnogen is an exhibition space that is not defined by walls or ceiling, but unfolds under the open sky in a West Jutland forest. Skovsnogen confronts traditional ideas about the encounter between art and audience, and gives artists new opportunities to create and present their works. Skovsnogen conveys contemporary art to a new audience in a manner that does not require prior knowledge, but gives everyone an opportunity to experience the art.

Reviewed By Sneeuwgek

I visited Skovsnogen on a cloudy and cold winter day, frost everywhere along a walking trail with a lot of outdoor art. That's the best outdoor museum I ever seen, surprising you at every single step you take either by the art works you encounter or by the beauty of the surrounding nature. Excellent combination between art and nature. If you like photography you'll love this place. I would say it's worth the visit at any time of the year.
