Treasure hunt in the exhibition - For children and their adults
As something special, children and their adults can go on a treasure hunt together in the exhibition! Here you have to solve tasks, find your way and talk about your own treasures. During the hunt, you follow the treasure map and find not just one but many treasures. Get the free treasure map in the Diamond's shop.
The exhibition is also disseminated to children with specific texts, so that even the youngest can experience and understand Denmark's great treasures. You will find the children's texts on the iPad closest to the treasure.
You can find our treasures digitally too
If it is too far to The Black Diamond, you can also explore our treasures from home.
