VIDEO: 1977-1979. The Gedser wind turbine during NASA test runs
Thanks to Kristian H. Nielsen we can present this unique video of the Gedser wind turbine in action. Kristian H. Nielsen, associate professor and head of the Center for Scientific Studies at Aarhus University, released the video in 2010 when he published a journal article comparing the technological development of the Gedser mill and the Smith-Putnam wind turbine.

July 2023. Nicole Kühr has offered to crochet another mini model for the planned Juuls museum. An offer, we accept with great pleasure. Also on behalf of tourists and crochet lovers.
"I am 31 years old and live in Austria. I enjoy traveling with my husband, who works as a mechanic in the wind industry and also photographs wind turbines around the world, which is why our trips usually include several stops at wind farms. In 2019 I had the opportunity to To visit your beautiful Denmark and came across your Gedser Wind Turbine.
I saw this exotic, interesting building from afar and said, "Oh wow, that looks pretty cool and so different from the other modern wind turbines. We should take a closer look."
I was told that the Gedser Wind Turbine is a kind of "mother of all wind turbines". Since I love crocheting, the idea for a new exotic project was born. After a lot of research and many mistakes, I finally succeeded, and that's why I like to invite you to show my own small Gedser Wind Turbine made of wool."

2016-25. Offshore Symphony
|
|
2016. Frank Pecquet and two students from Sorbonne University, Paris, produce a web documentary about Eolienne de Gedser. Inspired by the rushing sound of the Wincon rotors at the time, Frank Pecquet composes an offshore symphony as a homage to Johannes Juul.
Gedser wind turbine has been assigned the role as the "leading voice" and the offshore wind farm, 15 km afar and visible from the Gedser wind turbine, as the "chorus" of the Offshore Symphony. For a detailed technical description, click on the pdf button below:
The Offshore Symphomy is to be installed in coordination with the reconstruction and recommissioning of the Gedser Wind Turbine.
