KØN - Gender Museum Denmark, Gender history museum in Old Town Hall, Aarhus, Denmark
The museum exhibits explore cultural aspects of gender identity, equality, body representation, and sexuality through diverse collections and displays.
The museum building, designed by Ferdinand Thielemann in 1857, served as Aarhus town hall before becoming a police station from 1941 to 1984.
KØN presents exhibitions that examine gender roles across different time periods, including the evolution of childhood experiences over 150 years.

As one of few institutions worldwide dedicated to gender studies, KØN maintains collections that document the progression of gender relations in society.
