Hans Christian Andersen Museum, Children's museum in Odense, Denmark
The Hans Christian Andersen Museum spans 12,600 square meters, with two-thirds of its exhibition space located beneath ground level, surrounded by seasonal gardens.
The museum, established in 1908, preserves the legacy of Denmark's renowned fairy tale author through collections of manuscripts, illustrations, and personal belongings.
The exhibitions transform traditional storytelling into immersive experiences through the integration of architecture, sound, light, and interactive installations for visitors.
Visitors need to reserve tickets in advance as the museum limits capacity to 250 people at once, with audio guides available in Danish, English, and Chinese.
Japanese architect Kengo Kuma designed the modern museum complex, incorporating underground chambers that connect with outdoor garden spaces through natural light.
