The Yeast Cell is a window into the fascinating micro-world of microorganisms that can help us make bread, brew beer, make medicine and perhaps produce the fuels of the future.

In the Yeast Cell exhibition, you can discover more about the roles that yeast play in our daily lives and you can cultivate a colony of mega yeast cells by controlling their access to heat, water and sugar. The Yeast Cell is also a great place to take a rest.

Right above the entrance to The Yeast Cell you will find a magnificent mechanical clock. The clock tells the story that evokes the past of this building as a former bottling plant of the brewery Tuborg.
The clock’s mechanism tells the story of how an orange soda is made – from harvesting and pressing the fruit to bottling and distribution.
