Friday 11 October at 11:00 and 13:00. Standing concert in the old cathedral

Standing concert in the old cathedral at Børglum Kloster with musicians from Aalborg Symphony Orchestra

This autumn, on Friday 11 October, we invite you to step into a unique historical space when the old cathedral stands empty for the first time since the Middle Ages.

Before the scaffolding work began, the cathedral was empty and you could truly experience its vast, historic space in all its undisturbed grandeur. This is a rare sight that shows the amazing proportions of the church, a medieval cathedral built for eternity.
Now you can experience the cathedral stripped bare for a concert this autumn!
At this concert, you'll experience the impressive architecture and acoustics of the cathedral, completely undisturbed by pews and other furnishings. The concert lasts 20 minutes, and as there is no seating, we recommend that it is not for people with walking difficulties.
The music is provided by 5 talented musicians from Aalborg Symphony Orchestra, and we promise an experience that will awaken memories from the past and create new impressions of this historic place.

Date: Friday 11 October at 11:00 and 13:00.
Duration: the concert lasts 20 minutes
Standing concert. Unfortunately not wheelchair accessible or for people with walking difficulties.
Venue: The old cathedral, Børglum Kloster
Ticket price DKK 85. Tickets for the concert can be purchased at the door on a first come, first served basis

Come and feel the wings of history in this very special event.

We look forward to seeing you!
Halloween and harvest

Halloween and harvest are celebrated in weeks 41 and 42. during the weeks there will be various (un)cosy activities for children and adults.

We decorate for a cosy Halloween. Experience the witch's spooky kitchen, among other things

The competition for children

The little ghosts are going to a Halloween party but their invitation has been lost, so they can't remember who is organising the exciting party for the abbey's many ghosts.

Luckily, the ghosts can remember one letter each! Help the ghosts. Find the letters next to each of the ghosts dressed for the party and find out which of the monastery's ghosts is hosting the party.

Krumme on a visit - Wednesday 16 October at 11.00

Come to the traditional Christmas market at Børglum Kloster

Do you and your family need to get into the Christmas spirit? Then come and visit and enjoy our cosy Christmas market where you can find everything your Christmas heart desires.

Christmas is the only time of the year when we have opened our private parlours, which guarantees a unique Christmas atmosphere. We have decorated the entire monastery with Christmas hearts, fir trees, nativity scenes, crawling gnomes and all the other decorations that go with Christmas.

At our Christmas market, we organise various Christmas events, and we have had a visit from a Santa Claus orchestra, which was a great joy for everyone of all ages.

Events on this year's Christmas calendar

During the festive season, we open up the monastery's private rooms to create an atmospheric setting for our Christmas market. This year you can expect around 30 different stalls with everything from arts and crafts to food stalls with local delicacies produced by local producers and using local ingredients. Arts and crafts stalls with Christmas decorations and sundries, and food can be enjoyed in the renovated horse stable.

We also offer an amazing brunch or evening buffet in our café, where you can enjoy the taste of Christmas with your loved ones. If you want a brunch or evening buffet, please remember to book in advance.

You can get an overview of our opening hours this season in the box to the left.
