Industrial and Hat Collection Sønderborg

Are you into industrial history and women's hats? In the old horse stable you can experience two collections in one association!

At the former Sønderborg Barracks, you will find the old horse stable situated a bit by itself, the rings for tying the horses still sit in the wall, and today the stable does not house teats, but rather two exciting collections.

The Industrial Collection
On the lower floor you will find exhibitions about industrial history in Sønderborg Municipality. With a selection of companies in Sønderborg, industrial history from approx. 1850 to the present day.

In our exhibition, it will be possible to see effects from, for example, the following companies:
Cormall, Focon, JF-Fabriken, Det Nordiske Kamgarnspinderi, Møller & Co., Solofabriken, Stein og Mayland, Sønderborg Kommunale Elektricitetsværk and many others

Hats Collection
On the 1st floor you will find the exhibition on hat fashion from the end of the 1700th century until today. Along with the hats, other matching effects are also exhibited, such as muffs and dresses and more. We also have a wedding couple in clothes from when the wedding dress was still black.

Among the hats on display you will find a so-called Kiss-me-if-you-can-hat (1816-30), beautifully decorated Almuekone hats (1800s), beautiful hooded hats with feathers (1880-90) and many more beautiful and special headgear . In A small corner with children's hats shows that children of the better bourgeoisie certainly did not lag behind the adults.

If you are unable to take the stairs, ask for the lift.

Parking and facilities:
We have a ramp with a low rise up to the front door and a large toilet room.

There is free parking right in front of the door, also for cars with handicap signage.

Payment:
Cash or with MobilePay.

More hands are welcome!
Whether you are interested in industrial history or think hat fashion is exciting, both collections can use more helpers, so if you want to join our association, you are welcome!
