The engine room
Here, automotive history, design and family experiences meet
The Engine Room in Skagen is a new, ambitious experience centre created as a meeting point for the whole family. In the middle of the harbour, close to the town's life and maritime environment, a 10,000 m² universe opens up, where mechanics, fashion and play come together in a spectacular whole. Here you will have an experience where the engines of the past, modern design and child-friendly activities merge in one and the same destination.
Roar of engines, craftsmanship and authentic stories
The engine room houses one of the area's most impressive collections of engines, vintage cars, motorcycles, and maritime machinery. Here you can feel history through sounds, movements, and the scent of old craftsmanship – all that has helped shape Skagen as an industrial and port town. Whether you are interested in mechanics, history, or raw aesthetics, there is plenty to immerse yourself in.
800 m² garden exhibition – vintage and design of exceptional quality
The Experience Centre also offers an exclusive 800 m² fashion exhibition, where vintage treasures and designer accessories meet modern curation. Here you will find iconic brands such as Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Dior, Prada and Gucci – selected bags, suitcases and accessories that add elegance and international design heritage to the industrial-inspired surroundings of the Engine Room.
The new design dimension makes The Engine Room a unique meeting place for fashionistas, aesthetes, and guests who love to explore craftsmanship, quality, and history.
Fun and games for the youngest in the family
The engine room is designed for curiosity and movement – for children too. A dedicated children's area of 100 m² provides space for comfort, learning, and motor development at a child's eye level. Here, the youngest can play, experiment, and experience, while adults explore the many exhibitions. This makes the engine room an obvious destination for families of all ages.
Restaurant with a view of Skagen Harbour
At the top of the experience, you'll find the Engine Room restaurant with a panoramic view of the harbour. Here, visitors can enjoy a break with views of the shipyard, cutters, and the ever-changing shades of the sea – an obvious conclusion to a day filled with impressions.
An experience centre in motion – for all generations
The engine room is designed as a place where everyone can find their own experience. The car enthusiast can immerse themselves in the large machines. The design lover can be inspired by timeless accessories and iconic brands. And the youngest members of the family have space for play and adventure. It's all brought together within a framework that celebrates Skagen's cultural heritage while also looking forward.
Opening in 2026 – in the heart of Skagen's vibrant harbour environment
Experience Centre Maskinrummet opens in early summer on Auktionsvej in the heart of Skagen. With its location in the very centre of the harbour's pulse, it will become a natural focal point for both locals and visitors – a place where history, innovation, fashion and family activities meet in a vibrant and inspiring holistic experience.
