Between 1945 and 1949, Denmark’s sixth largest city was located in the dunes on the Danish west coast. After that birds and trees took over, and only a few buildings reminded of the huge refugee camp for German refugees that once was there.

Until now. Because 'Flugt' chronicles their struggle, including an immersive, location-bound audio experience in the forest. In the museum itself - located in the former hospital, renovated by BIG architects - this specific history is linked to the universal story of people on the run and to the current worldwide refugee situation. Flugt tells their story and delivers a meaningful experience about leaving home and searching for a new one.
