Ehlers Samlingen is a true treasure trove

Ehlers Samlingen is the largest collection of pottery in Northern Europe, stretching back 500 years. This unique museum is, without a doubt, worth a visit. 

The exhibition tells the story of everyday life through kitchenware, fascinating craftsmanship and the development of ceramic techniques through the ages. Among other things, you can experience soup pots, plates used for fish dishes, and the work of Danish sculptor Thorvald Bindesbøll.

The museum is situated in a historic building from 1577. The house is beautifully restored and contains some of the best-preserved Renaissance panel and ceiling paintings in Denmark.  

Visit Ehlers Samlingen and go exploring. The ticket also gives access to the museum: Von Oberbergs Hus – home of a Renaissance architect

Slotsgade 20, 6100 Haderslev

OBS! Your ticket to the Ehlers Collection also grants you access to Von Oberbergs House.
