Huset KBH

Huset KBH is a cultural center housed in connected buildings in the heart of Copenhagen's old town, using various halls and rooms across multiple levels for different events. The facility ranges from small stages to exhibition spaces and a cafe with board games for guests.

The main building was constructed in the early 1730s after the Great Fire of 1728 destroyed the previous structure on this site. The building served as a private residence for generations before becoming a public cultural center.

The center serves as a gathering place for different cultural communities who shape and present their own events within its walls. Visitors encounter people actively involved in programming who bring the space to life through their participation.

Visitors can drop by informally during the day or attend events scheduled in the evenings and on weekends. The cafe with games offers a relaxed way to spend time without joining a scheduled performance or show.

The place operates almost entirely on volunteer labor, meaning community members are not just spectators but also organize and run the events themselves. This makes it Denmark's first venue of this kind, where the line between visitors and creators blurs.
