The story behind Green George
If you are visiting Christiania, you can go exploring in search of Green George. Near the troll, you'll discover plenty of art, and behind him stands a mural created in collaboration with Rasmus Balstrøm.
"Den Store Troldefolkefest" is the name of the project that came about due to Covid-19. Thomas Dambo was originally supposed to build 25 trolls around the world, but because of the pandemic, Thomas flew to Denmark, where the troll festival came to life with the help of numerous local volunteers from across the country.
