Bølgen (Danish "The Wave") is a modern residential building complex by the Skyttehus bay in Vejle, Denmark. It is inspired by the Sydney Opera House by Danish architect Jørn Utzon and the hilly landscape around Vejle Fjord.
The Wave in Vejle is designed by Henning Larsen Architects and contains ultimately 105 luxury apartments distributed on 14,000 square metres (150,000 sq ft).
It has been named as a ground-breaking architecture piece in modern times and a significant landmark of Vejle.
The two first waves were finished in 2009. Construction was halted for a few years due to financial issues. In 2018, the remaining three waves were completed.
