It’s the oldest church in Holstebro. The first church was built in 1440, but that church burned down. They rebuild the church and reinforced it. In 1907, they realized the church was too small, so they decided to build a new one. Unfortunately, the old church was built too strong, so they struggled demolishing it. They then decided to use dynamite for the demolition, and succeeded. The church they built in 1907 was too big to be placed in right direction. So, in order to build the new church, so they had to change that also.
The Odin Theater was founded in Oslo in 1964 by Eugenio Barba. He gathered a group of actor aspirants, who had not entered the State Theater School, and developed a training for actors. At this time, no other similar groups existed in Europe. Being self-taught and independent of the mainstream theater world was unheard of and has characterized the history of the Odin Theater up to now.
The Music Theatre Holstebro was built in 1966. It was one of the incentives for placing focus on cultural in Holstebro in the 1960’s.
