Lots of activity in autumn at Museum Kolding

Children's activities during the autumn holidays

14 October – 22 October 11.00 - 16.00 (Monday closed)

THE STABLE YARD

The last piece

The leader of the resistance movement in Kolding is in danger - the Gestapo is coming! You are now the only one who can warn him in time. But who is he? How are you ever going to find him?

With the help of Gestapo index cards, the knowledge of your friends and your common sense, you can work out who the city manager is and reach him before the Gestapo.

The activity takes place in the exhibition "1943 - The Gestapo is coming!" and only requires a curious child and an adult with a ticket to the exhibition. Entrance for adults DKK 70, children under 18 are free. Staldgården 1, 6000 Kolding Tuesday – Sunday at 11.00 – 16.00 Price: Children free, adults DKK 70.

CHRISTIANSFELD

Lost in the future

During the celebration of Christiansfeld's 250th anniversary, a whirlwind has arisen in time. The girl Clara, who lived in Søstrehuset over 100 years ago, has been sucked into the time vortex and has now landed in Christiansfeld in 2023. Although she finds it exciting to see what Christiansfeld looks like now, she misses her family and the other girls in the Sister House. She needs your help to go back in time.

In the more than 100 years that have passed, much has happened in the city, but there is also much that has remained almost completely unchanged. By walking around the town and finding the houses that are in the old pictures, you create a connection back in time so that Clara can come home.

You can pick up the assignment in the museum shop in Søstrehuset.

"Lost in the future" takes place in the streets of Christiansfeld and does not require admission to Søstrehuset. It is free to join. Nørregade 14, 6070 Christiansfeld Tuesday – Sunday at 11.00 – 16.00 Price: Free.

Guided tour: In the footsteps of death

Jazz at Skamling – Winnie Dahlgren & Annette Saxe

She has brought Annette Saxe with her, who is a trombonist in the DR Big Band on a daily basis.

Their friendship goes back many years, which they take this unique opportunity to celebrate. The concert will be a journey through the vibraphone's rich overtones, mixed with the trombone's colorful nuances. Where the music is based on the rich Scandinavian song treasure, mixed with original compositions.
