Résumé :	Den Gamle By (The Old Town) in Aarhus, Denmark, exhibits many valuable artefacts that are impossible to evacuate in an emergency. Studies were carried out to investigate whether it is possible to protect them in case of fire using a fire-retardant cover. In this experiment, eight different types of covers were tested in a realistic fire experiment. The results show that it is possible to find suitable materials for the protection of museum artefacts in the event of fire.
