Carl-Henning Pedersen og Else Alfelts Museum, Modern art museum in Herning, Denmark.

The museum building consists of a circular exhibition space and a three-sided pyramid, connected by underground exhibition halls to the former Angligården shirt factory.

The museum opened in 1976 after Carl-Henning Pedersen donated thousands of artworks created by himself and his wife Else Alfelt to the city of Herning.

The collection contains over 6000 pieces including paintings, textiles, ceramics, and sculptures that demonstrate Danish contributions to modern artistic expression.

Located at Birk Centerpark 1 in Herning, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 16:00, with free admission for visitors under 18 years old.

In 2022, the museum received Prince Henrik's sculpture collection, which includes animal figures and creatures that bridge the gap between reality and imagination.
