Local Area
Kirsten Kjærs Museum www.kkmuseum.dk is situated in an area of scenic beauty in Langvad at Hannaes close to Vejlerne. The museum opened in 1981 as a private enterprise in a converted farmhouse and now contains more than 280 paintings by Kirsten Kjær (1893-1985). The original museum buildings have since been enlarged with 6-7 side galleries for changing exhibitions by national as well as international artists just as the neighbouring building has become the guesthouse for visiting artists. There are also graphic and sculpture workshops. Through the summer there are concerts including the Langvad Chamber Music Jamboree. Since 2008 these have taken place in John's Hall, a purpose-built and much praised concert space perfect for the performance of chamber music.
