The Victorian Home

The Victorian Home exhibits a complete apartment from 1890 with original furniture, textiles, and decorative elements arranged in their initial positions throughout multiple rooms.

Built in 1852, the residence belonged to merchant Rudolph Christensen and his family until 1963, when his daughters bequeathed the contents to the National Museum.

The interior design represents the living standards of Danish upper-middle-class families during the late nineteenth century through preserved domestic spaces and artifacts.

The museum operates guided tours in Danish every weekend at 11:00, 12:30, and 14:00, with English-language materials available for international visitors.

The curtains remain drawn to protect century-old textiles, creating an authentic period atmosphere with original upholstery, drapes, and decorative trimmings from 1890.
