The Glass Collection

The largest collection of glass in the Nordics

On shelves that tower an impressive seven meters in the air and 40 meters in width, you are faced with 200 years of history - told in glass.

One of the largest and most important collections in the Nordic region, it contains more than 42,000 unique pieces of glass. Some of Holmegaard Glassworks' greatest treasures are hidden here. There are first editions and prototypes of everything from the Provence bowl to the Lotus candlestick and amazing one-offs from some of our greatest artists.

The collection includes glass from Holmegaard, Kastrup, Odense/Fyens and Hellerup glassworks, among others. Now, for the first time, the glasses are presented together and - for most of them - in the place where they were created.

Holmegaard Værk's impressive glass collection functions as an open magazine. This means that visitors can experience the museum's entire spectacular collection - not just selected exhibits.
