Do you want to get behind the scenes of probably the most iconic company in Denmark?  

Exclusively for The Copenhagen Post’s Connect Club members, this free tour of the Home of Carlsberg will take you through the long history of the renowned Carlsberg company, telling the story of its founder J.C. Jacobsen and its extraordinary global growth.

The exhibition unfolds the intriguing story of J.C. Jacobsen and his son, Carl Jacobsen, their assumptions about brewing and how this has affected the Carlsberg we know today. 

The tour gives a rare and exciting insight into the genesis of modern beer brewing, but also into Carlsberg’s influence on science, art and civil society via the rest of the Carlsberg family.

Since 1847, The Carlsberg Brewery brand has brewed beer at the top of Valby Bakke, which today is known as the Carlsberg City District in Copenhagen.

The Home of Carlsberg has undergone a thorough, five-year renovation, and opened for visitors again less than six months ago, in December 2023.
