Alfthan Juel. A collection within a collection.
Drammenseren Alfthan Juel (1857-1937) listed Drammens Museum as his universal heir, and the museum inherited 300,000 kroner (equivalent to approx. 12.5 million today). The museum also inherited his extensive collection, approx. 1,300 objects in addition to archival material, historical documents and books. This gift constituted a significant supplement to the museum's collections, both qualitatively and quantitatively.
In the exhibition, we will show a wide range from Alfthan Juel's complex collection.
