KAPELLET GENFORTALT – om stedets stille forvandling

På Frederiksberg Hospitalsgrund ligger et tidligere kapel, som hen over sommeren er blevet nænsomt forvandlet af tre tværfaglige hold bestående af arkitekter, kunstnere og kunsthåndværkere. Gennem rensning, reparation og bearbejdning af det eksisterende – murværk, gulve, døre og detaljer – har de undersøgt, hvordan bygningen og haven kan få nyt liv med så få tilføjelser som muligt. Resultatet er en sanselig bygningsoplevelse, der peger på nye, bæredygtige veje for transformation med lavt ressourceforbrug og stor omhu.

Transformationen kan opleves af publikum fra 12. september til 31. oktober 2025.

Åbent torsdage 14.00-20.00 og lørdage 10.00-16.00.

ENG:

At the Frederiksberg Hospital grounds, a former chapel has been gently transformed over the summer by three interdisciplinary teams consisting of architects, artists, and craftspeople. Through cleaning, repairing, and working with the existing elements – brickwork, floors, doors, and details – they have explored how the building and garden can be brought to life anew with as few additions as possible. The result is a sensory architectural experience that points toward new, sustainable approaches to transformation with low resource consumption and great care.

The transformation will be open to the public from September 12 to October 31, 2025.

Open Thursdays 2:00–8:00 PM and Saturdays 10:00 AM–4:00 PM.
