Müllers Pakkhús – or Müller’s Warehouse – is one of the most iconic buildings in the Tórshavn marina. This old wooden storehouse from the 18th Century has been restored within the last 20 years. Müllers Pakkhús recently opened the top floors and the house is now more than ever a hub for culture in the capital.
This building has turned into a cultural powerhouse in the spirit of Nordic collaboration and with the purpose of sharing knowledge and building on a shared understanding between our societies.
There are many challenges to deal with and I am sure that you will get new and valuable insights during this conference.
