Guided tours

It is always possible to get a guided tour in the special exhibition

Take a guided tour of The French collection. The collection is exhibited in the brand new building designed by the award-winning Norwegian architectural firm, Snøhetta. You will see exquisite artwork from some of the greatest French artists of the 19th century such as Edgar Degas, Claude Monet and Paul Gauguin.

Join us on a tour of the Danish collection, where you will see works of art by Vilhelm Hammershøi and his Danish contemporaries. Museum Ordrupgaard’s founders Wilhelm and Henny Hansen collected works of art by many Danish artists such as Hammershøi, L.A., the Fynbo painters and the ‘Danish impressionist’ Theodor Philipsen. On the tour, we take a closer look at the mentioned artists and talk about the major breakthroughs that took place around 1900.

On this tour, you will go on a journey through Museum Ordrupgaard’s most important art works. One of the museum’s skilled guides will guide you through the collection’s main artists. The tour can accommodate everything from French Impressionism and Hammershøi to ceramics and artwork in the old Mansion. Let yourself be surprised!

On this tour, you’ll learn more about the architecture of Museum Ordrupgaard, which provides the setting for the museum’s unique collection and rotating special exhibitions. During the tour, we’ll take a closer look at the manor house, Ordrupgaard, across from Zaha Hadid’s building to the Norwegian architectural firm Snøhetta’s Himmelhaven, which together offer a unique insight into the architectural and cultural history of the past 100 years.

Who says art has to hang quietly on a wall? In The Art Park, you can touch, climb, crawl, play, and dance among works created by the greatest contemporary artists. Dodge the water jets in Jeppe Hein’s water pavilion, climb around in Doug & Mike Starn’s giant bamboo maze, and jump through Olafur Eliasson’s magical ring of mist, which envelops the park in fog when the wind shifts. Our art guide will tell you about the park’s history and show you around all its secret nooks and crannies.
