Is Copenhagen's Cisternerne an Art Museum or Public Health Museum?

This weekend prior attending ISPOR 2023 in Copenhagen, I visited the Cisternerne Museum. The museum is a unique as it a (literal) underground art museum that is housed in a former water reservoir (and dripstone cave). While the museum currently had an interesting light-based art exhibit from South Korean artist Kimsooja, perhaps even more interesting was the Cisterne's history.

During the summer of 1853, the Danish capital was hit by a cholera epidemic that killed 4,742 people over the course of a few months. With a population of approximately 130,000 the epidemic was nothing less than a human disaster.

Interestingly, the Pumpehuset water supply building in Copenhagen is now a concert venue.

Hopefully I will see many of my readers at ISPOR 2023 this week!
