Living summer days
Visit the animals at the living museum farm Karensminde.
Go on a treasure hunt, play, throw horse shoes, have a picnic, relax with arts and crafts and simply enjoy summer in quiet, idyllic surroundings.
On Tuesdays and Wednesdays in July the Association Karensminde’s Friends joins us in facilitating extra fun activities for the children, making history alive.
Climate focus at the Museum
When you visit Mark during the summer holiday, you can become part of the solution for a sustainable future. Share your hopes, ideas, or frustrations on the climate tree in the newly opened exhibition Klimarødder - Climate Roots.
Bringing history to life
In making history interactive at the museum, we aim to learn valuable lessons from the past.We help each other rediscover past knowledge and work methods that can help us tackle today’s challenges and ensure a sustainable future.
