Klitgården, Event venue in Skagen, Denmark.
Klitgården is an event venue in northern Denmark built from red brick with whitewashed walls, arranged across three connected wings that display traditional Danish architectural features. The building stands near the shoreline and operates as a meeting space managed through a trust that handles reservations and daily operations.
Architect Ulrik Adolph Plesner designed this building in 1914 as a summer residence for King Christian X and Queen Alexandrine of Denmark. The property was later converted to its current function as a public meeting and event venue.
The venue now functions as a retreat center where Danish artists and researchers gather to focus on their creative and intellectual work. It provides a sheltered setting for people seeking dedicated time away from daily distractions.
The venue sits very close to the coast, making it easy to reach from nearby areas but exposed to coastal weather conditions. Visitors should prepare for windy conditions and variable weather typical of northern Danish locations.
Storms in 1919 permanently reshaped the coastline around the building through erosion, moving the shoreline closer than it was originally. This natural change continues to define how the site relates to the sea today.
