The building was the main guardhouse and waiting room of the former Burmeister and Wain shipyard. Christer Bredgaard converted it in 2015 and 2016, keeping its raw, weathered character.
The dry sauna holds up to 8 people and is booked privately for 1 hour 45 minutes (800 DKK Monday to Thursday, 950 DKK Friday to Sunday). Cold comes from a harbour dip. Soup and Sauna drop-in runs on Sundays from 18 October to the end of March. Gus sessions with Sauna Svala run on Sundays in the colder months. The kitchen is organic and Danish-sourced.
