Ballerup Museum

Ballerup Museum is a part of the charming village community in Pederstrup. The village consists of serveral farms and cottages. The museum consists of Pederstrupgaard, Lindbjerggaard and Lynsmedens Hus.

On Pederstrupgaard you will find two permanent exhibitions. The first one shows the history and development of the city of Ballerup. In this exhibition you can among other things experience a class room from 1900 and a section with old-fashioned toys. The second exhibition is about Grand Duchess Olga, daugther of Tsar Alexander III and Empress Dagmar. Grand Duchess Olga lived in Ballerup from 1930-48. The exhibition contains around 100 of her oilpaintings and watercolours. In the farmhouse of Lindbjerggaard you can experience how the living quarters of a farmer looked in the eighteenth and nineteenth century. In front of Lindbjerggaard you will find the well-preserved farmer's garden from about 1900. An old grocer's shop and forge are established in Lynsmedens Hus where the smiths often light the fire in the forge.
