This museum is small, but has amazing exhibitions of Danish furniture and contemporary art, and the surrounding gardens and views of the sea are exceptional. Absolutely delicious if typically expensive lunch in the gem-like cafe.

This is a stunning modern building on a hillside with great views of Kolding fjord - reminds me a lot of the Louisiana museum north of Copenhagen with its views of the Øresund. The collection of art is interesting too, although the collection of modern Danish chairs is what really stands out here. It was also a thrill to see... More

Also the chair exhibition is nice and very Danish because so mane Big danes contribute to the exhibition. If possible go and see... More

In additional to its beautiful fjord view and surroundings, Trapholt is an exemplary piece modern scandinavian architecture. Coat check is DIY, inside the shop. Then go straight to the cafe down the slope to get a feel for the entire museum. The marvelous Fjord view will make your jaw drop, so remember to breathe! Buffet lunch is about Kr 158/person,...

I was struggling for time when I visited and only noticed the Danish chair exhibit towards the end of my visit as it was in a completely different wing of the complex. Facinating place though, I will return when I have more time.

This art museum is well situated with a fine view, and a modern and well organized building, the exhibbitions I have seen have all been very interesting, sometimes they have been in co-operation with the Koldinghus exhibtion.

A great collection of contemporary art located in the suburban area of Kolding. I was astonished by the huge selection of chairs and other designs - it was a great starting point for my school project and also for my personal experience. In addition, as you go out to the back garden through the cafeteria, a beatuiful view unfolds to... More

this is a quiet but large museum- the highlight was the tour of the Arne Jaconsen pre-fab summerhouse has been moved to the grounds. I think the tour is given three times a day by a guide and permits you to walk and even sit and in the spaces- this is MUST visit for those interested in Jacobsen's work.
