About The National Museum of Photography

NO PERMANENT EXHIBITION - We have been taking photographs for more than 150 years. And have captured our impressions of reality. The National Museum of Photography collects it all - from the earliest photo-chemical experiments to pictoralism, Neue Sachlichkeit, press photography and private photo albums to the contemporary experimental photo and video art. The museum presents three temporary exhibitions annually.

The collection at The National Museum of Photography

The National Museum of Photography’s collection contains about 50,000 works, divided into Danish photography, foreign photography and several special collections, amongst others the largest amount of daguerreotypes in Scandinavia.
