About Cisternerne
This former water reservoir beneath Frederiksberg Gardens has been transformed into a dramatic underground exhibition space for contemporary art and installations. The cathedral-like concrete chambers with standing water create an atmospheric backdrop for site-specific works that play with light, sound, and reflection.
Insider Tips
Wear closed-toe shoes as the concrete floors can be damp, and bring a light jacket since the underground temperature stays cool year-round.
