Abstract
Specialet undersøger, hvordan der kan udvikles et moderne besøgscenter for borgruinen Hammershus, der opfylder nutidens behov. Projektets kerne er formidlingen af Hammershus' historie til besøgende: stedets baggrund, borgens oprindelige formål og fortællingen om den nye bygning. Arbejdet fokuserer på at forandre oplevelsen fra en travl turistattraktion til rum, hvor koncentration og eftertanke er mulig. Ud over de arkitektoniske principper prioriteres en bæredygtig tilgang højt. Udviklingen tager udgangspunkt i Naturstyrelsens program for et nyt besøgscenter ved Hammershus og bruger deres krav som afsæt.
This thesis examines how to develop a modern visitor centre for the Hammershus castle ruin that meets today's needs. The core focus is how the site's history is communicated to visitors: the history of the place, the castle's original purpose, and the story of the new building. The project aims to shift the experience from a busy tourist attraction to spaces where concentration and contemplation are possible. In addition to architectural principles, a sustainable approach is given high priority. The work is based on the program of Naturstyrelsen (the Danish Nature Agency) for a new visitor centre at Hammershus and uses its requirements as the starting point.
