A museum dedicated to Hans Christian Andersen is preparing for the storyteller’s bicentenary.
In Odense, Denmark, the city where Andersen was born on April 2, 1805, $4.4 million has been spent on the museum, one of the country’s best-known tourist destinations. The museum’s upgrading -- part of an effort to prepare for the 200th anniversary of Andersen’s birth in 2005 -- includes the installation of several touch screens and computers featuring works by Andersen, author of “The Ugly Duckling” and “The Little Mermaid.”
