On Tuesday April 2nd, H.C. Andersen’s birthday, the first foundation stone of the new H.C. Andersen’s Museum in Odense was laid. In the writer’s spirit, the foundation stone, in the form of a chest, included paper cuttings, project drawings and Klods Hans’ fairytale. The museum, which is partly underground, is integrated into a park which is publicly accessible, thus integrating the museum into daily life in Odense. The project is designed in collaboration with Kengo Kuma & Associates, CORNELIUS VÖGE, MASU Planning and Søren Jensen Consulting Engineers.
