This place used to house an Abbey but the monks have since moved away and what remains here is just a remnant of what used to be. Don't expect beer that is brewed here unlike other European monasteries, as this place is mainly a museum. You'll need to pay an entrance fee too, which only gives you a sort of VR experience. Nevertheless, if you prefer something that is more rural, can consider dropping by here. There's a nice national park that surrounds the area and if the weather is nice, makes for a good natural walk. The outdoor part of the museum is nice and can be visited without entrance ticket. The indoor Museum is Not friendly disabled people. Access only by staircase, same where is the exhibition. So, poor museum don't spend any money there its just a Place for a sunday leisure walk. Lovely place for a walk, look at the old buildings, have a picknick or visit the cafe. Only one tenth of the original Abbey buildings remain, and even these have been heavily rebuilt and reconstructed after the reformation. Beautiful place though, good exhibitions for kids. Fine but rather expensive restaurant in one of the adjoining buildings. Buffet in the Abbey building itself during the weekend, but you need to book in advance. Lovely park and educational herb garden and route in the monastery landscape Great museum of historical interest. Build as a monastery in mediaeval age. Had some connections to the royal family of Denmark. Today a museum, a shop and cafe. Beautiful surroundings and a short walk to Lake Esrum. Worth a visit regardless of season. Esrum Abbey is a Cistercian abbey from 1151. The abbey is well preserved, boasts an interesting history and now features a few interesting exhibitions and a cafe. Not to forget, they abbey is located in the National Park “North Zealand of Kings” with breathtaking nature for walks, cycling, angling and much more. Var på gå tur .et flot sted Dejligt sted at gå en tur og fin butik med mange lækre specialiteter The ticket was 95k. After going through the exhibition and what it has to offer, I felt that it was indeed expensive. Especially the interior exhibition which is more focused on light and audio installations. I was, however, impressed with the installation of audio, mimicking monks praying in a hall, with compline sung by Cistercians from Heiligenkreuz Abbey in Austria. The top floor was empty and was meant for children to play around. The park is pretty and one does not need to pay to walk around to enjoy the garden with different kinds of apple trees or watch the streams. Great place especially with the AR tour outside and the VR headset video for the inside.. a bit of a shame that there's not more than 10% left of the original. But a good place to visit regardless What an amazing place! Step back into history with 21st Century technology, but make sure that you have an hour to spare for the Reformation game 😊 Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
