**★★★★★ Danil Kornovan — 6 months ago
Visited it during 2023 CPH Light festival.
**★★★★★ M Ackerman — a year ago
I make special effort to visit a city's parks & cemeteries and this one definitely stood out to me. I was in awe walking around due to the beautiful landscape and of course moved by the various tombstones as I was walking by. I think it is such a pretty and peaceful place both for its inhabitants and visitors.

This is a very beautiful and peaceful cemetery. It is very nice to walk through this place.
**★★★★★ Bar Dado — 5 years ago
Sad place of course, it’s a cemetery, but very green and well kept! Inside also the baby born dead cemetery as well as German soldiers and Italian war prisoners cemeteries!

One of the biggest and most diverse cemetery parks in Copenhagen. Huge- can get lost even if you’ve been there couple of times. Very clean and decent. Beautiful avenue and great road to pass threw with a bike or walk to the other end. There is also a nice lake in the middle and other “hidden” benches and spots to rest.
