"We are pleased to have been chosen and look forward to continued collaboration with Middelfart Museum. Well-being and welfare are very important to us, and we are proud to contribute to conveying this through the conversion of the former psychiatric hospital (Teglgårdsparken) in Middelfart into the MIND museum. This will tell the story of the place and psychiatry's history while also meeting modern needs for exhibition facilities and visitors, preserving as much of the original building's character and expression as possible," says Rune Bjerno Nielsen, Partner, Architect, and Head of C.F. Møller's competition department in Aarhus.
