For many years, LEGO
®
employees and their guests enjoyed
visiting the small museum the company had created in
the converted house of the company’s founder, Ole Kirk
Kristiansen, in the heart of Billund.
All the visitors were thrilled to learn about the history of the
company and experience the philosophy behind LEGO
play, and many expressed the wish to be able to share this
experience with a wider audience. It was this enthusiastic
interest that sparked the dream of creating an actual LEGO
experience center.

“The location here in Billund is important.
We were founded here, and we want to help
develop and create life in the town, making it
attractive to both citizens and visitors.”
Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen
