Explore Copenhagen On This Mapped Self-Guided

12 hours ago

• 1.Torvehallerne 1.Torvehallerne Start your walking tour at one of my favorite places in Copenhagen, Torvehallerne. Torvehallerne represents one of the things I love most about the city: continuous reinvention. On its location once stood Grønttorvet, a market selling fresh produce from the region – a farmers market. Because of the emergence of supermarkets, Grønttorvet lost its importance. However, Torvehallerne is trying to bring back fresh food into the city. And they are succeeding, because Torvehallerne is one of the city’s foodie hot spots today. Take a stroll through the two halls and maybe pick up a treat to give you strength for the rest of the walking tour 😉 Directions Your next stop is Rosenborg Castle (2). You’ll be walking a distance of 650 m.
• 2. Rosenborg Castle & Kongens Have 2. Rosenborg Castle & Kongens Have One of the highlights of this Copenhagen walking tour is without a doubt, Rosenborg Castle. Rosenborg Castle, built in the early 1600s, is one of Christian IV’s many architectural accomplishments. Today it houses Denmark’s crown jewels, but its real jewel is its gardens, also known as Kongens Have. Kongens Have has been open to the public since 1770 and has been an important reprieve from the buzzing city ever since. At one point in history, bears supposedly roamed the grounds of the gardens. Today, Copenhageners come here to relax and catch some much-needed sun. Among the things you can see here is a statue of famous writer H.C. Andersen, the Hercules Pavillion, as well as a well-kept rose garden. In the summer, it’s also the location of a popular puppet theater for children. Directions Your next stop is Nyboder (3). From the garden gates, you’ll be walking a distance of 400 m.
• 3. Nyboder 3. Nyboder Speaking of King Christian IV, another project of his is Nyboder. These charming yellow buildings once served as the homes of Danish sailors and their families. They were barracks under the command of the Danish Navy. Today they are popular due to their ‘Instagram-worthy’ color. And I have to say – they DO make a beautiful backdrop for photos 😉 Just please remember that these are the homes of actual people who would prefer not to appear in your next profile picture 🙂 Directions Your next stop is Kastellet (4). To reach the gates, you’ll be walking a distance of 700 m.
• 4. Kastellet 4. Kastellet Kastellet, also known as the Citadel, is a star-shaped fortress that was once an integral part of the city’s defense system. Although it is still under the command of the Danish Armed Forces today, it is also a popular recreational space for Copenhageners. Besides the bright red barracks, there is plenty to see on the grounds. The citadel is home to a church and a prison, but the most surprising sight may be a traditional Dutch-style windmill. In order to get to it though, you will need to climb the ramparts from which you’ll also be rewarded with a beautiful view 🙂 Directions Your next stop is the Little Mermaid (5). From the northern gate, you’ll be walking a distance of 450 m.
• 5. The Little Mermaid 5. The Little Mermaid No visit to Copenhagen could ever be complete without seeing The Little Mermaid. Granted, it’s probably the most overrated sight in Copenhagen, but hey, if you’re already in the area, you might as well see it 😉 Commissioned by industrialist Carl Jacobsen in 1913 the bronze statue depicts the character of the same name from H.C. Andersen’s “Den Lille Havfrue” (The Little Mermaid). Standing only 1.25 m tall, it is perhaps not the most imposing sight in Copenhagen, but the statue is still cherished by many. Directions Your next stop is Gefion Fountain (6). You’ll be walking a distance of 420 m.
• 6. Gefion Fountain 6. Gefion Fountain The Gefion Fountain is a large fountain depicting the Norse goddess Gefjon driving a wagon pulled by numerous animals. According to legend, it was Gefjon who plowed the Danish island of Zealand out of Sweden. Swedish king Gylfe supposedly offered her as much land as she could plow out within a day and a night. In order to accomplish the incredible feat, Gefjon transformed her sons into oxen which are seen pulling the plow. The fountain itself was donated to the city by the Carlsberg Foundation and draws thousands of tourists every year. Directions Your next stop is St. Alban’s Church (7). You’ll be walking a distance of just 10 m.
• 7. St. Alban’s Church 7. St. Alban’s Church One of my favorite churches in Copenhagen, St. Alban’s Church is also commonly known as the English Church. It was built in the late 19th century in a distinct British Gothic Revival style, otherwise known as the Victorian Style. The church has served the British-Anglican community in Copenhagen ever since and is one of the few churches with services in English today. It is a fairly simple church but offers a pleasant architectural contrast to the rest of the cityscape. Directions Your next stop is Amalienborg Palace (8). You’ll be walking a distance of 900 m. Along the way, you can also see the Opera House and Amalienhaven.
• 8. Amalienborg Palace 8. Amalienborg Palace Amalienborg Palace is one of the most important sights in Copenhagen and obviously had to be included in this itinerary. What started once as a ‘simple’ collection of city palaces for Danish noblemen, is the residence of the Danish royal family today. In fact, it has been so since the late 18th century when the original residence of the royal family, Christiansborg Palace, burned down to the ground. Parts of the palace are open to the public, while others are reserved exclusively for the royal family. Whether any of them are at home is indicated by the flags hoisted at the palace. Another giveaway is the changing of the guards. While the changing of the Palace Watch takes place, they are only accompanied by the King’s Guard when Queen Margrete II is present at the palace. If another family member is residing in her place, the Lieutenant Watch takes over. In any case, it’s quite a nice spectacle and it’s well worth arriving at Amalienborg Palace a little before noon. Directions Your next stop is Frederik’s Church (9). You’ll be walking a distance of 250 m.
• 9. Frederik’s Church 9. Frederik’s Church Frederik’s Church, otherwise known as the Marble Church, is quite possibly one of my favorite sights in Copenhagen. It’s best known for its outstanding rococo interiors and its striking dome which dominates the cityscape. It’s free to enter the church, so I recommend you take a peek. On the weekends it’s also possible to climb up to the dome of the church with a guided tour. These tours take place at 13:00 sharp and tickets can be bought at the entrance for 35 DKK. Directions Your next stop is the Royal Danish Playhouse (10). You’ll be walking a distance of 850 m.
• 10. Royal Danish Playhouse 10. Royal Danish Playhouse The Royal Danish Playhouse is one of Copenhagen’s most modern edifices. Although its construction had been discussed since the 19th century, the building as we know it today was opened only in 2008. It’s a striking mix of deep-brown brick, stainless steel, and glass. Much of the building protrudes over the water and is supported by Venetian-style crooked columns. Walking around the pier of the building is one of the best things to do in Copenhagen in the summer. Directions Your next stop is Nyhavn (11). You’ll be walking a distance of 130 m.
• 11. Nyhavn 11. Nyhavn No visit to Copenhagen and no Copenhagen walking tour could ever be complete without Nyhavn. If you have ever seen postcard pictures from Copenhagen, I bet you they featured a view of this quaint harbor. However, did you know what is now one of the most expensive addresses in Copenhagen, was once considered the city’s seediest area? When Nyhavn operated as the city’s main harbor, it attracted sailors, pubs, and prostitutes – not very glamorous! Today much has changed, of course, but you can still find a good number of cafes and restaurants here. Unfortunately, they tend to mostly cater to tourists and are pretty expensive. Instead of eating here, just enjoy the view and take a couple of photos. If the weather is good, do it like the locals and buy some beers to sit down by the water with 😉 Directions Your next stop is Charlottenborg Palace (12) which you can see best from Nyhavn. You’ll be walking a distance of 350 m.
• 12. Charlottenborg Palace 12. Charlottenborg Palace On the other side of the canal, you can also see Charlottenborg Palace. It was originally constructed in the 17th century as a city palace for the half-brother of King Christian V. Since 1754, it has served as the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. Today, it also hosts the art gallery Kunsthal Charlottenborg. The building is a fine example of the Dutch Baroque style with Italian influences. Directions Your next stop is Kongens Nytorv (13). You’ll be walking a distance of 100 m.
• 13. Kongens Nytorv 13. Kongens Nytorv As the largest square in Copenhagen, Kongens Nytorv is probably what you would call the city’s ‘central square’. The square was initially laid out in the 17th century by King Christian V. His plan was to expand the city and to that end, he purchased several acres of undeveloped land. Here he created a new cobbled square, heavily inspired by French city planning of the time. After its completion, several notable buildings were erected around the square. To the south lies the Royal Danish Theatre from 1874 to the east Charlottenborg Palace (12), to the west Hotel D’Angleterre and Magasin du Nord department store, and to the north Thott Palace. At the heart of the square, you’ll find an equestrian statue of Christian V himself, as well as a cute little kiosk that once served as a public telephone and is used as a coffee kiosk today. Kongens Nytorv has recently been renovated so you can enjoy its new-old glory! Directions Your next stop is St. Nicholas Church (14). You’ll be walking a distance of 330 m.
• 14. St. Nicholas Church 14. St. Nicholas Church St. Nicholas Church is one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks, thanks to its 90-meter high spire. The original building dates back several hundred years but unfortunately burned down almost completely in 1795. What you see today, is a modern reconstruction of the building by architect Hans Christian Amberg from 1912. The reconstruction of the spire was financed by none other than Carl Jacobsen. Today, it houses the art gallery Kunsthallen Nikolaj. For 75 DKK you can take a guided tour to the top of the church. Directions Your next stop is Agnete and the Merman (15). You’ll be walking a distance of 170 m.
• 15. Agnete and the Merman 15. Agnete and the Merman Agnete and the Merman is a collection of bronze statues submerged in one of the city’s numerous canals. They depict a merman and his seven sons, urging his daughter Agnete to return to them. The artwork by Danish sculptor Suste Bonnen is inspired by a traditional Danish folk story “Agnete og Havmanden”. It can be a bit tricky to spot, so keep your eyes peeled 😉 Directions Your next stop is Holmens Bro (16). You’ll be walking a distance of 200 m.
• 16. Holmens Bro 16. Holmens Bro Although Holmens Bro in itself isn’t really anything special, I like it because it offers a nice view of some of the city’s most interesting buildings. Of course, there is Christiansborg Palace (17), but from here you can also see Holmens Kirke and Børsen. The bridge itself is one of 9 bridges connecting the island of Slotsholmen with the rest of Copenhagen. The Church of Holmen, or Holmens Kirke, may be one of the most unassuming churches in Copenhagen but is still well worth a mention. It was first built as an anchor forge in the 16th century but was converted into a church by King Christian IV in the early 17th century. It is most famous for the fact that it hosted the wedding of current Queen Margrethe II and Prince Henrik in 1967. On the other side of the canal lies Børsen, the Danish Stock Exchange. Naturally, this 17th-century architectural gem was another of Christian IV’s projects. He aimed to strengthen Copenhagen’s role as a financial center in Northern Europe. It’s a leading example of the Dutch Renaissance style in Denmark and easy to recognize due to its spire-shaped like the tails of four dragons twined together. Today the building houses the Danish Chamber of Commerce. Directions Your next stop is Christiansborg Palace (17). You’ll be walking a distance of 80 m.
• 17. Christiansborg Palace 17. Christiansborg Palace Christiansborg Palace is the location of the Danish Parliament and as such an important political institution. However, its history is much more curious than that. The first castle at this location was built in the early 12th century but was demolished in the late 14th century. In its place, the original Copenhagen Castle was built. In 1731 it was demolished to make room for Christiansborg Palace. This palace burned to the ground in a devastating fire in 1794. Even worse, its successor burned down in 1884. After these two fires, most Copenhageners were opposed to rebuilding the castle once again. However, Christiansborg Palace as we know it today was completed in 1928. Most of the royal rooms are open to the public and the parliamentary rooms can be visited on a guided tour. You can also climb the tower and enjoy the beautiful view over Slotsholmen for free 😉 Directions Your next stop is the Royal Library (18). You’ll be walking a distance of 420 m.
• 18. The Royal Library 18. The Royal Library The Royal Library, or Det Kongelige Bibliotek, is the national library of Denmark. Not only is it the largest library in the Nordics, but one of the largest libraries in the world. The main building of the library is known by most people as the Black Diamond. Completed in 1999, it was one of the first buildings leading the modernization of the Copenhagen waterfront. Directions Your next stop is BLOX (19). You’ll be walking a distance of 250 m.
• 19. BLOX 19. BLOX BLOX is one of the newest additions to the Copenhagen cityscape. The impressive building was designed by Dutch company OMA (a bit of a rarity in a landscape dominated by Danish architects). It was completed in 2018 and is the new home of the Danish Architecture Center (DAC). Looking at it is really quite a treat, but I love it especially for its canal-side terrace which serves delicious coffee with beautiful views 😉 Directions Your next stop is Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek (20). You’ll be walking a distance of 500 m.
• 20. Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek 20. Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek is one of the most notable art museums in Copenhagen. It primarily exhibits sculptures from Ancient Rome, Greece, and Egypt, although it also houses a sizable collection of impressionist and post-impressionist art. The building itself is quite a sight as well, consisting of three wings. Its most distinguishable feature is the building’s palm house. You can take a quick peek inside without having to pay the admission fee (or visit for free on Tuesdays). Directions Your next stop is Copenhagen City Hall (21). You’ll be walking a distance of 300 m.
• 21. Copenhagen City Hall 21. Copenhagen City Hall On city hall square you find, not surprisingly, Copenhagen City Hall. This monumental building was first opened in 1905. It was designed by Danish architect Martin Nyrop who drew inspiration from Siena City Hall and put elements of the Italian style in a Danish context. Inside the city hall, you can find Jens Olsen’s World Clock, an astronomical clock, completed in 1955. With a guided tour, you can also take a trip to the tower and enjoy the views over the inner city. Directions Your next stop is Tivoli (22). You’ll be walking a distance of 300 m.
• 22. Tivoli Gardens 22. Tivoli Gardens Although every Copenhagen itinerary includes Tivoli Gardens, on this Copenhagen walking tour you’re only passing it. Tivoli is the second-oldest amusement park in the world still in operation. It first opened its doors to the public in 1843 and has been popular with locals and tourists ever since. Unfortunately, the entrance to the gardens is not free which is why I have decided not to include Tivoli in this itinerary as such. However, I really enjoy the decorations at the main gate during Halloween and Christmas. They are pretty photo-worthy in and by themselves 🙂 Directions Your next stop is Axel Towers (23). You’ll be walking a distance of 40 m.
• 23. Axel Towers 23. Axel Towers While you’re in the area, don’t miss the Axel Towers. Designed by Danish architect Lene Tranberg, the towers opened in 2017. The building consists of five interconnected towers, the tallest of which reaches a height of 61 meters. They house various company offices, specialty shops, as well as cafes and restaurants. Directions Your next stop is Palads Cinema (24). You’ll be walking a distance of 330 m. You May Also Like → →
• 24. Palads Cinema 24. Palads Cinema Palads Cinema first opened its doors to the public more than 100 years ago in 1912. At the time, it was located in the former central railway station which had ceased operation one year prior. The cinema was extensively renovated in 1955 and was further updated in the 1970s. In 1989 the cinema received its signature coat of paint which by itself attracts thousands of visitors every year. Directions Your next stop is Gammeltorv (25). You’ll be walking a distance of 760 m.
• 25. Gammeltorv & Nytorv 25. Gammeltorv & Nytorv Nytorv and Gammeltorv are two adjoining squares in the inner city of Copenhagen. Gammeltorv is the oldest square in Copenhagen, dating back to the city’s foundation in the 12th century. Its most distinguishable feature is the Caritas Fountain, the oldest fountain in Copenhagen. Most buildings around the square were erected in the 19th century after a devastating fire had damaged almost all edifices around the square. Nytorv was created by King Christian IV (shocking, I know) and is located just to the other side of the former city hall. This old city hall, however, burned down in 1795 and was rebuilt in a different location on Nytorv. As a result, the two squares became one. Today, the old city hall serves as a courthouse. Directions Your next stop is the Church of Our Lady (26). You’ll be walking a distance of 100 m.
• 26. Church of Our Lady 26. Church of Our Lady The Church of Our Lady, or Vor Frue Kirke in Danish, is the city’s most important church and otherwise also known as Copenhagen Cathedral. The original church was built soon after the city’s foundation in the 12th century, but also fell victim to a devastating fire in the early 14th century. Due to money constraints, however, the tower wasn’t built until the 16th century. Due to a lightning strike, a bombing, and further fires, the church needed to undergo further restoration throughout the years. The building as you see it today is a beautiful example of Neo-Classical architecture in Denmark. Directions Your last stop is the Round Tower (27). You’ll be walking a distance of 360 m.
• 27. Round Tower 27. Round Tower Finally, you have arrived at the last stop on this walking tour of Copenhagen. The Round Tower, or Rundetaarn, is one of Copenhagen’s most recognizable sights and included in practically every itinerary. The tower was erected in the 17th century under none other than Christian IV. It was built as an astronomical observatory and still functions as such today. The tower is, however, most known for its equestrian staircase which spirals all the way to the top. At the top of the tower is a viewing platform that offers some of the best views of the city. Why not cap off this walking tour with a good old Copenhagen selfie? 😉 Guided Copenhagen Walking Tours If you are very short on time or simply don’t want to deal with the hassle of a self-guided Copenhagen walking tour, you can also opt to take a guided tour instead. : This two-hour walking tour of Copenhagen takes you through the heart of the historic Old Town.
