FLUGT – an important museum

FLUGT is the first museum in the world dedicated to refugee stories. In addition to the story of the German refugees from the Second World War, FLUGT tells the story of the last hundred years of refugee flows that have affected Denmark.
Permanent exhibition

Refugees at all times

Who are the actual people hidden away behind the headlines and statistics we encounter in the media? How does flight impact a person? What is ‘home’?

On the basis of stories of refugees from countries such as Germany, Hungary, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Syria, the exhibition turns statistics into people and conveys the universal experiences, thoughts and emotions associated with the plight of being a human being on the run.
