About the venue: Vartov

Vartov is a listed building complex from 1725 in Farvergade, just off City Hall Square, originally built as a hospital. N.F.S. Grundtvig served as priest in the adjoining Vartov Church from 1839 until his death in 1872, and Grundtvigsk Forum has owned and run the building since 1947. Today it hosts debates, lectures, communal singing, meetings and conferences, and also contains a library, a podcast studio and a student dormitory.
