Museum of Copenhagen

About

Copenhagen is one of the world’s most livable cities. But who are the Copenhageners and what kind of city is Copenhagen? Begin your visit at the Museum of Copenhagen, located in a beautiful, historical building right behind City Hall. You’ll be introduced to all the most important places and events in the history of the Danish capital. From the city of the Viking Age, through the building boom and plague, fires and bombings, to the free city of Christiania today. A vast array of unique, original exhibits bring the city and its people to life e.g. a 600 years old shipwreck. Our interactive model gives you an overview of the entire city – perhaps you will end up as a Copenhagener yourself! Café and shop: Find an original gift in our musum shop, which offers everything from poscards to handcrafted design. Or relax in the café or the 'hygge' courtyard.
