Kunstmuseum Brandts, Art centre in Odense, Denmark
Kunstmuseum Brandts occupies five floors of a former textile factory and displays rotating exhibitions of Danish and international art. The collections span painting, photography, and contemporary installations alongside video art.
The building started as the Brandts Klædefabrik textile factory, founded in 1864 and operating as a clothing manufacturer for decades. In the 1990s, the abandoned factory was transformed into a cultural center dedicated to art exhibitions.
The museum presents exhibitions that show how art connects to everyday Danish life and how artists respond to contemporary issues. You can observe how local and international works relate to each other throughout the displays.
The building is accessible by stairs and elevator, which is useful to know if you have mobility concerns. Plan several hours to explore the exhibitions spread across multiple levels comfortably.
The art cafe within the building sits surrounded by contemporary artworks including large murals and sculptures, making dining part of the artistic experience. This blurs the line between culture and everyday moments.
