Architecture tour of the museum building

A horrible cube or a wonderful concrete building? During the tour we will explore the architecture of the museum building both from the outside and the inside. How does the brutalist architecture of the 1960’s fit in the surroundings that is dominated by buildings from 19th century and an oak that was planted in the 17th century? What makes the museum building special and why is it a protected building?
