The Orangery & café
SIMPLE SUMMER VACATION AT THE ORANGERY
In the month of August, there is a simple summer at the Orangery, where one can enjoy well-brewed coffee, tea, chilled white wine, beer, and soft drinks. The menu includes cake and a small selection of delicious sandwiches.
It is not possible to book a table in advance.
Note: We are closed every Monday.

Fermentation, pickling, salting and other historical ways of preserving
The telling of history is best when it proceeds through all of our senses. And conversations are the very best when they take place over good food and drinks. Kamma and Knud Lyne Rahbek knew that – and it is still very true today. That is why food is often involved in our many activities at Bakkehuset.
But what did people eat in the old days? How did they preserve their food? What does the fermentation process do to the raw materials? The Orangery’s chef, Anne Sofie Berlin, offers ongoing workshops, where you can learn how to ferment, salt, pickle and preserve fruit and vegetables.
