Industrimuseet Horsens - History you are a part of

Historic experiences

Industrimuseet isn’t just a sight to see – here you can also touch, hear, smell and taste history! In short, we promise hours of experiences for the whole family. Yes, it’s for children too.

See all experiences

Mighty Machines

There's something magical about our big old engines – don't you think? Then just wait until we start them… …

Step into work

And you won't just be watching – you'll be working on the assembly line, making big decisions in the CEO's office and much more. Come and join us! …

Life beyond the factory

Go home with the workers and explore their apartments, for example (you can)……

The playground

Everyone is welcome on our playground to crawl, climb and slide your way through industrial history. The steam boiler, flywheel, nuts and more will get you ready for what you can experience inside the museum. And if you dare, you can also take a ride down the seven-metre-high gas tank slide!

What’s on today

You’ll get the most out of your visit if you prioritize some of the many planned activities. It’s a bit like feeding time at the zoo – it’s worth going for!

History in a different way

“Industrimuseet”… Some say our name is made up of the two most boring words in the language. Fair enough – but that’s also the only boring thing you’ll find here. We’re passionate about history, and that’s why we’ve created a museum that’s also an attraction. A museum that’s also family-friendly. In short, a museum that’s always worth a day out – even if you live far from Horsens.

Because history should be told, felt and experienced, so you become part of it. And it can easily give you just as many butterflies as a trip to the funfair or the cinema…
