The Dome in Allinge
The dome was built in 2012 in connection with a public meeting on Bornholm. The dome is owned by Boligselskabernes Landsforening ( BL ) and was designed by architects Kristoffer Tejlgaard and Benny Jepsen. For the first few years, the Dome stood by the car park across the road, but as there was a desire for it to be a permanent building for the People’s Summit, it was dismantled and moved to Circus Square in 2014. In this context, some improvements had to be made to the building.
To make it weathertight, a layer of weatherboard was placed between the inner and outer walls and Plexiglas windows were installed, which were produced in 52 different variants. Toilets were installed in the basement and a large terrace with disabled access was created outside. The building has a lounge, a mafia and a hall that can accommodate 150 people.
The wooden skeleton itself is made of state-controlled Bornholm Douglas fir and the cladding in various recycled wood. The dome is 212 m2 and is 8 m high and the whole construction cost 6,5 million crowns. During the People’s Meeting, the cathedral serves as a meeting house, but the building is also owned by Bornholm’s Regional Municipality and can be rented for various activities, from party rooms to art exhibitions.

Associations may also organise some types of events for their members/volunteers, which may also have a festive character.
However, it is always a good idea to write to the email above about your specific event so that you can get a clear answer.
