Temporarily closed for renovation until late 2020, Ordrupgaard is one of the largest museum collections of French impressionism in Europe outside France itself. Most of the great 19th-century French artists are represented, including Manet, Monet, Matisse, Cézanne, Renoir, Degas, Gauguin, Sisley, Delacroix, and Pissarro. Ordrupgaard also has a superb collection of Danish Golden Age painters and spectacular works by Vilhelm Hammershøi, whose deft use of light and space creates haunting settings for his mostly solitary figures. The paintings hang on the walls of what was once the home of museum founder and art collector Wilhelm Hansen. The interior of this manor, dating from 1918, has been left just as it was when Hansen and his wife Henny lived here. In 2005 a black, curvaceous addition, designed by the acclaimed Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid, joined the main building. In addition to extra exhibition space, the new structure made room for a spacious café that overlooks the park. There are labels in English.
Strandvejen, the coastal road that showcases private mansions like beads on a string, is the location of this café, whose name means "around the world"; it features striking views of Øresund, the sound between Denmark and Sweden. The menu includes sizable sandwiches, soups, salads, and cakes.
