I drive to the area myself. Where can I park?
You can park your bike, car, bus, or motorcycle in our large private parking lot, which can be accessed via Frederiksværksvej 205.
If you enter Esrum town via Esrum Hovedgade, there is no through access to our parking lot from that area. In Esrum town, parking is available on public roads. There is no parking allowed on Klostergade leading up to Esrum Abbey.
Parking in our private lot via Frederiksværksvej 205 is free. We are working on installing charging stations for electric cars.
Can I access the site in a wheelchair?
There are disabled parking spaces in the parking lot and a disabled elevator in the Water Mill. There is also a disabled toilet in Klostergården, as well as ramps to Møllecaféen and Klosterbutikken. But let’s be honest: it’s hard to get around many places in a wheelchair. In the monastery building itself, there are only stairs and there are cobblestones in the courtyard.
Admission is free on presentation of a companion card.
Can I use the site with a stroller?
Yes, but access can be difficult in different parts of the grounds: there are many stairs in the monastery building itself and cobblestones in the courtyard.
