Egeskov is not open during daytime hours during LUMINIS

LUMINIS is a sensuous artistic light experience taking place along a route through various garden spaces at Egeskov. It is held during the winter school holidays, where visitors to the garden embark on a walk of approximately 2 km in the winter darkness. Along the way, one encounters beautiful light and sound installations by a wide range of international artists.

With LUMINIS, we wish to offer a cultural event that provides visitors to the garden with a beautiful and distinctive shared experience, supported by the history, architecture and garden setting of Egeskov.

LUMINIS is created in close collaboration with the Dutch Robbert ten Caten from Lumen In Art, the creator of the “Light Castle Festivals” that take place at castles throughout Europe. The works are created from a sustainable perspective. www.lumeninart.com

LUMINIS is realised in collaboration with Dansk Video Center (DVC).
