The Cultural Museum Vejle
Experience how the world we know today was created.
Experiences for curious children and adults!
Meet one of the world's best-preserved bog bodies: Haraldskær Woman. In the atmospheric exhibition, you step into the bog where she was sacrificed and held down with hooks more than 2,000 years ago.
In the museum's eight-meter-long archaeological dig box, children can excavate skeletons and treasure hunt with a metal detector. The many fascinating objects from the Iron Age tell the story of a time when the first villages were established.
Experience how the Industrial Revolution created the world we know today, with leisure, abundance, and global climate crisis. And join us on a trip to the legendary local disco Crazy Daisy from the years 1990-2010, in the exhibition about the history of nightlife!
All of the museum's exhibitions have fun activities for children. The indoor backyard invites play for kids and those young at heart. Here, you are allowed to jump, climb, and play with everything. Crawl in the scaffolding, operate the crane, and use the cotton scale.
There are English texts in all of the museum's exhibitions.
