Kofoedsminde

Kofoedsminde is a residential care facility in Rødbyhavn that provides housing and support services for adults with physical or intellectual disabilities. The grounds contain multiple distinct living sections designed to serve different care needs and levels of independence.

The facility was established as an independent organization in 1983 following a separation from Rødbygård. This restructuring built upon earlier foundations laid by Storstrøm County using existing buildings on the site.

The institution maintains specialized programs including educational activities and employment initiatives through its Kometen project, which engages residents in productive tasks.

The complex is best explored through organized visits since the different sections serve specialized functions and are not all open to the public. Visitors should arrange access in advance by contacting the administration to ensure appropriate permissions.

The residential units are named after celestial bodies such as Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, and Venus, giving the facility a distinctive character. This naming convention creates a unique identity across the different departments.
