The Cultural Yard
The Cultural Yard has several parking spaces for vehicles with disability signs. Access to ALL disability parking is via the car gate on Ny Kronborgvej.
The library’s two disability parking spaces are in the inner courtyard of The Cultural Yard. Car access is via Ny Kronborgvej and through the alley, along the back of The Cultural Yard. In the courtyard, there are a few steps to a revolving door where the speed can be reduced. All revolving doors at The Culture Yard can be reduced in speed by pressing a button.
Wheelchair users can access The Cultural Yard via the door to the right of the revolving door. There is a small doorbell - press it and someone from the reception will come and open the otherwise locked door. The other two disability parking spaces are located on the northeast side of The Cultural Yard, facing Ny Kronborgvej.
There is an elevator that has room for a wheelchair.
In the children's library, there is a ramp to "The Cave”.
There is enough space to move around the entire library.
