Copenhagen off the beaten path
Historic Scandinavian buildings — more than 100 of them — invite you to travel back in time and to learn about Denmark's history from its dwellings, many of which were painstakingly moved and restored on this site. Open Tuesday through Sunday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
A visit here takes you from granary to the aroma room. Guided tours give you access to sealed rooms that reveal age-old traditions of beer making. Guided tours are offered Tuesday to Friday between 10 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. for an additional fee.
See sculptures created by sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen, whose work can be found across Europe. Long corridors allow for natural light and echo the creative ambiance. The Museum opened on September 18, 1848. It is Denmark’s oldest and also most extraordinary museum building. Open Tuesday-Sunday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
Transport yourself back to days of royalty in Copenhagen. Gaze at the old-time carriages and saddles, admire uniforms worn by riders in days of yore and meet the modern-day residents of the actual stables. Giddy-up!
