A fantastic museum. It tells Danish history from the Viking Age to the present day in a very engaging way. The collection is incredibly rich and the Viking artifacts are especially fascinating. Definitely a must-visit in Copenhagen

We went with our kids (7 and 9) and absolutely loved this museum. Most visitors just think “Vikings” when they think about Scandinavia. However, the Nordic Bronze Age and earlier periods have so much fascinating and under-appreciated history and this museum covers it beautifully.

Several of their displays like the Gundestrup Cauldron, Sun Chariot and Huldremose Woman are deservedly world famous. Really amazing stories and artifacts.

Would highly recommend a visit here if you’re a history enthu

We visited the National Museum of Denmark today and it was a genuinely positive experience.

Good big museum with multiple levels and buildings! Vast varieties of many contents and really interesting things to see! There is a little children playground in the middle of the complex but only for children and with an extra fees. (I saw a Viking set up with a guys dress in the Viking style but we can't go in as an adult 😞) The Doll House section was super impressive with the number and size of the room and a day and night alternative as well! Many cool facts and items to see and read throug
