About this tour
This session walks Brandts, the former textile factory now converted into Odense's cultural quarter. You see the original industrial features kept during the conversion and a current gallery space. Jeppe explains how the site mixes several cultural uses today.
The walk covers two points inside the quarter at an easy pace. Jeppe answers questions about the building's conversion and its current use.
This suits anyone interested in adaptive reuse or contemporary art. It pairs well with his evening session on Vintapperstræde.
