Ordrupgaard Art Museum


Kunstmuseet Ordrupgaard

Ordrupgaard art museum houses one of Northern Europe's most important collections of French and Danish art from the 19th and early 20th century. This museum is today state-owned, but was created by Wilhelm Hansen, founder of a successful Danish insurance company. In 1918 he let his private collection of French Impressionists in his exclusive country house to be open to the public once a week.

Today the area of the museum is doubled by the extension designed by the world-renowned Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid.
