Oluf Høst Museum

Oluf Høst Museum is a gem of a cultural institution housed in the former artist's home of Oluf Høst in Rønne, Bornholm. This intimate museum celebrates the life and work of one of Denmark's most celebrated painters, offering visitors a genuine glimpse into the creative world of this remarkable artist. The museum features permanent exhibitions including 'Oles Atelier,' showcasing paintings by Oluf Høst's son Ole W. Høst, who developed his artistic practice within these very walls. In 2026, the museum presents special exhibitions including works by contemporary artist Martin Bigum exploring the relationship between artist, art, and family, as well as an exhibition examining the artistic kinship between Samuel Joensen-Mikines and Oluf Høst. Beyond the gallery spaces, visitors can explore the museum's beautiful garden and visit the artist's own studio. The museum creates an atmospheric, personal experience that goes beyond typical museum visits—you're stepping into an artist's world rather than just viewing objects behind glass. The collection spans works from the permanent collection to rotating exhibitions that maintain fresh perspectives on Høst's legacy and influence on Danish art. With opening hours from 11am to 5pm daily, it's an accessible destination for art enthusiasts, cultural tourists, and anyone seeking to understand Danish modernist painting.
