Trapholt

Trapholt is an art museum in Kolding that integrates into the landscape near Kolding Fjord, featuring exhibition spaces for contemporary art and Danish design collections. The building combines modern architecture with the natural surroundings while providing space for artworks spanning multiple periods.

The museum was founded in 1988 and designed by architect Frank W. Ingemann to create a connection between modern architecture and the natural surroundings. This design approach shaped the venue from the start as a place where architecture and art converse with each other.

The museum displays Danish furniture design and presents rotating exhibitions featuring Danish and international artists. The collections reflect how design shapes everyday life and the importance of craftsmanship in Danish culture.

Visits are possible Tuesday through Sunday, with extended hours on Wednesdays for longer exploring. The museum is fully wheelchair accessible and offers a comfortable experience for all visitors.

The museum houses Arne Jacobsen's experimental Kubeflex house, a rare example of his attempt to reimagine residential design. A dedicated room within the sculpture park displays paintings by Richard Mortensen.
