The Poul la Cour Foundation, which was founded on March 25, 2000, aims to secure Poul la Cour's research center in Askov for posterity, to establish a museum on site, and to collect knowledge related to the history of wind power. With support from the Danish wind turbine industry, it was possible in 2000 to acquire the buildings worthy of preservation, which contain the historical background for the modern Danish wind turbine industry. https://www.poullacour.dk/

Askov Church is located in Askov close to the west of Vejen in South Jutland. The church's history is closely linked to Askov Folk High School, which it is almost next door to. The church was built in 1899-1900 as a constituency church for a constituency, which for the most part consisted of employees at the folk high school
