Samlingsstuen is the event hall of Købmandsgaarden Kerteminde, a historic merchant's house at Andresens Købmandsgård 4 in the center of Kerteminde on Funen. The hall has room for 66 people and can be rented for meetings, courses, parties and memorial gatherings. The same house has bedrooms on the first floor, so a group can stay overnight and continue after 10 pm.
Seminars and company events
The inquiry form on the website lists the purposes the hall serves: a meeting with catering, a meeting without catering, a ready-made party, a celebration and a memorial gathering. The site also has separate pages for meetings and for courses, where it describes the hall as a calm setting for a course. Organisers can run the meeting themselves or ask the host to take care of everything.
The hall is a single large room with exposed beams and a stone floor. It is not a conference center with several breakout rooms, so it suits a day for one group of up to 66 people. Ask the host about screens and presentation equipment, as the site does not list them.
Weddings and receptions
The site presents the hall for parties and celebrations, and it offers a ready-made party in which the host takes care of the practical side so that guests only need to arrive. Weddings are not named on the pages that were read, so ask the host whether a wedding reception can be held on your date. Table layout drawings are published for 50, 60, 66 and 70 people.
Rooms and capacities
The hall holds 66 people. The website shows table layouts for 50, 60, 66 and 70 persons, with two variants for the larger counts. The hall comes with two toilets, a serving kitchen with a stove, oven, coffee machine, a large refrigerator and a freezer, and a large display refrigerator for drinks inside the hall itself. A separate washing-up room has an industrial dishwasher and trays, so a large wash-up is easy to handle. The cupboards hold porcelain, glasses and cutlery for 66 people.
Accommodation
The first floor has four double rooms with solid plank floors and large exposed beams. They are called Fiskergade, Langebro, Lillestranden and Romsø, and each sleeps two. The double beds can be split into two single beds. The website also lists further options, such as an apartment, and states that guests can rent rooms, the apartment or the whole place. Two parking spaces are free outside the door, and a breakfast delivery can be added.
Catering
The hall can be rented on the terms of a village hall, where the organiser provides everything, or the host can run the party. The host holds its own events, such as bingo and communal dinners, where the menu may be fried pork with parsley sauce. The kitchen equipment and crockery let an outside caterer or the organiser's team serve 66 guests.
History and setting
The house stands in the middle of Kerteminde and the site describes it as a house full of history. The visible beams go back to the tradition of half-timbered building. The calendar on the website shows the hall's own concerts, lectures and sing-alongs.
Getting there
The house is in the center of Kerteminde. The hall has two free parking spaces just outside the door. The website does not give train information, so organisers should check public transport for their group.
To plan an event, send an inquiry through the loggiata.com request form with the date, the number of guests and the purpose. The host replies with availability.
