Realdania - houses of the 20th century
/Realdania own important historic buildings throughout the country including a number of homes designed by some of the major Danish architects from the 20th century for themselves and their own families.
These have been restored by Realdania and they try to return the buildings to their original arrangement by removing later alterations if they are inappropriate and restoring interior schemes of decoration.
Many of these houses are let to tenants but are open to the public at intervals. This is a list of some of these homes of architects that are open in the Spring. Please check with the Realdania site as numbers of visitors to each property are limited and for some houses it is necessary to book a ticket before the day the house is open.
Realdania also produce excellent guidebooks and these are available free on line … the name of the house is a link to more information on the Realdania site and images are links to the relevant pages to download the guide book.
