What To Expect
Home of Carlsberg
Welcome to the Home of Carlsberg! At Home of Carlsberg, you step inside an iconic area with an exhibition and attraction in the heart of Carlsberg's original brewery. You will be taken back to where it all started in 1847 with the story of what Carlsberg was and is today. The exhibition unfolds the captivating story of Carlsberg and Carlsberg's founder, J.C. Jacobsen, and his son, Carl Jacobsen. A story about how disputes between father and son and widely differing perceptions of beer brewing have shaped Carlsberg.

You will also experience one of the world's largest bottle collections, with more than 22,000 beer bottles. And that is just a fraction of what the exhibition contains.

5.00Really informative and creative exhibition. Each section is carefully curated to provide lots of information in a concise way. Love the interactive components and it is good that we can download the results. Really nice visit, even for non-drinker like me.

5.00I was impressed by the Carlsberg tour! The exhibition was interactive and really kept your interest to know about the family and the history of the brewery. There were several fun interactive games and the best part is that you leave the exhibition with many digital souvenirs! Ah, and the free beer at the end is an excellent touch. Highly recommended!
Carlsberg an outstanding brewery.

3.00For a lot of money, you get a 100 light beer on entry, after almost an hour of traveling through old halls and interactive games, get another 0.4 and free🤥. And I dreamed of an hour and a half tasting for that money😁
Great visit

5.00This brewery tour is very different to any other I’ve been on, learning about the history and how impactful the Jacobsen family have been to Denmark and its population. The depth of impact to the sciences globally and DNA…
Great!
