Purpose:

To be the popular background for the museum and to actively contribute to the museum’s structure and operation.

This has included:

Drawing attention to the historical wind technology research carried out by Poul la Cour at the “State Experimental Mill” in Askov around the year 1900, which was of great importance for the electrification of the rural areas in Denmark.

Studying historical sources to help recreate several of Poul la Cour’s experimental exhibitions, as well as providing original effects for the museum and coming up with ideas for its interior design.

Working on the expansion and consolidation of the museum’s financial basis, which is primarily managed by the Poul la Cour Fonden.
Members can visit the museum free of charge every Wednesday from 9.00 to 14.00, or by appointment.
