A dialogue between architecture and nature
GeoCenter Møns Klint and its accompanying boardwalk exemplify environmentally integrated design, bringing visitors closer to the dramatic cliffs and ancient landscapes of Møn. By blending architecture into the natural terrain and prioritising accessibility, PLH created a sustainable cultural landmark that enhances appreciation of the surrounding nature.
Telling the story of Møns Klint through design
Winning an international competition, PLH was chosen to design the GeoCenter as a sustainable visitor experience embedded in the natural beauty of Møns Klint. The project aims to harmonise human interaction with nature through thoughtful architecture and accessibility enhancements.
Designing in harmony with nature
Our architectural concept reflects the cliffs and forest, using raw, natural materials like zinc, timber, and stone. The main exhibition hall is submerged in the hillside, preserving the landscape’s integrity while evoking a cave-like atmosphere that aligns with the site’s geographic narrative.
Sustainability and accessibility combined
The GeoCenter features passive design strategies, such as natural ventilation, solar orientation, and energy-efficient LED lighting – pioneering for its time. The 267-meter boardwalk, completed in 2013, extends accessibility through the forest to the cliff edge, blending seamlessly into its environment while enabling all visitors to enjoy the unique landscape. In 2025 Møns Klint was recognized on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
