Historical sculpture "To på tur"

Local art in the streetscape

The renowned native artist from Odder, Ole Grøn, has created a completely unique work that tells the story of Odder and its prominent personalities in a whole new way.

In collaboration with Odder Museum, the Odder Local Historical Archive, and local residents, stories and memories about Odder and its surroundings have been collected. He did this by diving into books and also cycling out to local communities to listen to the residents' stories. Hence the name To På Tur (Two on Tour).

The many narratives were captured by Ole Grøn in his drawings, which were transformed into one cohesive sculptural piece that was inaugurated in VitaPark in Odder in 2015.

 

Get your bike out

To På Tur is a combination of art, local storytelling, and nature experiences.

The main work is the sculptural piece located in VitaPark, centrally in Odder. Additionally, there are 10 other smaller parts of the work, which are placed in the municipality's towns and tourist destinations, creating a natural route through the beautiful landscape.

It is recommended that you follow in Ole Grøn's footsteps and cycle a round trip past all the artworks. So, get your bike out and explore Odder's many stories and beautiful nature.
