check out: The modern extension completes the courtyard space by adding two new wings, a gabled wing along the rear street and a lower connector to the south, respecting the proportions and patterns of the historic surroundings. It is an interpretation of the quintessential brick building. The new addition is clad entirely with specially developed ceramic shingles that allude to traditional masonry while giving a new format and rich colour play in a spectrum ranging from red, ochre, and slate gray. opening hours: Tue-Sun 11:00–17:00 Mondays closed The museum is closed on 24–26 December and 31 December - 1 January admission cost: DKK 70 Guided tours: Weekdays, business hours: DKK 600 Weekends/outside business hours: DKK 1000 (+ DKK 1.200 pr hour) website: www.sorokunstmuseum.dk getting there: Sorø is located 80 km south west of Copenhagen.
