About
The Engine Collection (Danish: Dansk Motor- og Maskinsamling) is a museum located in Grenå, Denmark. It holds Northern Europe's largest collection of stationary engines, featuring over 450 engines on display, the majority of which have been restored and remain operational. The museum operates a dedicated machine shop for the dismantling, restoration, and rebuilding of engines, including the fabrication of replacement parts when necessary. In addition to its engine collection, the institution showcases historical machinery. One notable example is a band saw-based sawmill powered by a Bukh engine, utilizing an intricate belt drive system that connects the indoor engine to the outdoor sawmill.
