The varied life and work of Kaj Munk

Right here, where you place your feet, Kaj Munk has also placed his. He has written his poems, plays and sermons right here in the room where you are standing. He has planted blue anemones in the garden and has been captivated by the very same view of Nørresø that you are looking at. Welcome to Kaj Munks Præstegård, where an exciting and unique story about Kaj Munk's versatile life and work awaits you.

'What was that all about?'

Audio exhibition about Kaj Munk's life

The focus is on Kaj Munk's life - and especially the fateful events of January 4, 1944 - in the exhibition "What happened?", which tells the story of Kaj Munk.

The exhibition, located in renovated rooms in the farmhouse of the vicarage, takes visitors through Kaj Munk's life via sound and live wallpaper, with a special focus on January 4, 1944, when he was taken by Nazi henchmen and assassinated.

Nomineret til internationale priser

“Hvad var det dog, der skete?” er skabt i samarbejde med det internationalt anerkendte designfirma Tinker Imagineers. I foråret 2025 var udstillingen blandt de nominerede til prisen International Exhibition of the Year, som uddeles af de britiske Museums + Heritage Awards.

I december 2025 modtog udstillingen endnu en fornem nominering – denne gang til EMYA 2026 – European Museum of the Year Award, den mest anerkendte museumspris i Europa.
