Observatoriebeholderen

Introduction. A truly unique experience awaits you down in the darkness of Observatoriebeholderen (the Observatory Container) - as well as two world premieres at once.

For the first time, the public will be granted access to the decommissioned water container of 5,000 cubic meters below ground (near Ole Rømer Observatoriet and Jydsk Væddeløbsbane).
Another first will be the experience of the artist Christian Skjødt Hasselstrøm and his newest piece in Aarhus.
NB: Limited available tickets - and, unfortunately, this experience is not suited for people with mobility impairment or physical disabilities due to steep staircases

Dear Guest,
We look forward to welcoming you for a unique experience down in Observatoriebeholderen! Visits to Observatoriebeholderen require booking a ticket for a certain timeslot. The experience consists of a guided tour through the container for a total of circa 30 minutes.

Important details to be aware of:
  • The experience in Observatoriebeholderen is restricted to people over the age of 16.
  • Unfortunately, the visit is not suited for people with mobility impairment or physical disabilities. The old and special setup of the container means limited accessibility and all guests need to climb up and down steep staircases.
  • The container has sparse lighting so tread carefully. We recommend a companion for people with visual impairment.
  • The container is quite chilly so dress accordingly.
  • Please be ready on time for your visit. The doors close at the beginning to create the full experience and late arrivals cannot be guaranteed access.
