Art Exhibitions on Ertholmene
During the summer months, Gallery Palivaren at Juuls Bastion on Christiansø is definitely worth a visit. Here you’ll find Denmark’s smallest gallery that is used primarily for exhibiting art inspired by Ertholmene.
The history of Palivaren as reception room
The shed was originally placed at the end of a bridge from Frederiksø into the water. Anyone wanting to go ashore had to stop first at Palivaren (from the French parloir or in English parlour – meaning a reception room), where the fortress doctor would check the ship’s crew and passengers for infectious diseases.
