The small yellow timber-framed house where H.C. Andersen lived with his parents from the age of 2 to 14 was opened to the public in 1930. The cobbled street takes you back in time, and the house offers a unique glimpse into the author’s early life. The modest rooms are furnished according to H.C. Andersen’s descriptions in his autobiography and provide a vivid picture of the poverty that shaped his childhood. This small house is a valuable supplement to the main museum in the historic district.
