Knud Rasmussen House

The Knud Rasmussen House stands on a hill overlooking the Kattegat Sea, featuring English cottage architecture with white walls and a thatched roof.

Built in 1917, the residence belonged to polar explorer Knud Rasmussen until 1933, when he returned from his final expedition through Greenland.

The museum displays collections of Inuit artifacts, maps, and photographs gathered during Rasmussen's extensive Arctic expeditions between 1912 and 1933.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 to 16:00, with adult admission at 75 DKK and free entry for visitors under 18 years old.

The memorial cairn near the house contains stones collected from different regions of Greenland, marking Rasmussen's connection to Arctic exploration.
