A visit to historical Slotsholmen is a must in Copenhagen
Slotsholmen sits in the heart of Copenhagen and offers a blend of architectural grandeur and cultural heritage. The island is filled with sights and museums you will want to explore when you visit Copenhagen. With this combination ticket you can visit both Christiansborg Palace and the Danish War Museum.
Royalty, politics and ruins at Christiansborg Palace
There is no denying that Christiansborg Palace is the main attraction on Slotsholmen. Stepping through the grand entrance of the palace is like stepping back in time, as the palace is built on the site of two previous castles. Today, the palace serves as he seat of the Danish Parliament, the Prime Minister's Office, and the Supreme Court, but it is also one of the most popular tourist attractions in Copenhagen.
A visit to Christiansborg Palace begins in the Great Hall with its high ceilings, ornate chandeliers, and intricate tapestries. From there, visitors can explore the palace's many other rooms, including the throne room, the royal chapel, and the royal apartments. A visit to the basement will take you to the ruins of the first castle, built on this site in 1167.
500 years of military history at the Danish War Museum
Visiting the Danish War Museum is like going on a journey through five centuries of Danish military history. The museum is housed inside the impressive 156-metre-long Royal Arsenal, built in 1604. A vast collection of artifacts, including weapons, uniforms, vehicles, and models, paints a vivid picture of Denmark's military involvement in conflicts around the world.
During your visit you can immerse yourself in the experience of Danish soldiers stationed in Afghanistan through the "The Remote War" exhibition, which recreates a Danish base in the country. Through this and other exhibitions, the museum delves into the human costs of war, showcasing personal stories of Danish soldiers and civilians affected by conflict.

The underground palace is worth a visit.
Came here but didn't have a lot of time so we did the underground part of the palace which was informative and something different to do. Was worth the money and recommend.

Christiansborg Palace: A Royal Tapestry of Color and Elegance
Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen offers a feast for the eyes, especially in its use of color and tapestries. The tapestries are not only works of art but vibrant displays of Denmark’s history, with rich hues that contrast beautifully against the palace’s regal walls. Each room has its own unique palette, with deep reds, golds, and blues creating a luxurious and inviting atmosphere. The careful coordination of colors with furniture and decor enhances the sense of elegance throughout, making the palace both visually striking and historically captivating.

Great On A Rainy Day.
The rooms that we could tour a Christian org palace were good , but we really liked the kitchen and the stables. The stables had the royal horses and a large collection of royal carriages from over the years. And it was interesting just to see the kitchens, the size of them, and hear some of the stories from them.

Great views from the outside with the winter snow
Christianborg Palace comes out of no where in the city centre of Copenhagen. Access to the inner court and the tower was free but the more special areas do have a fee for entry. I preferred to walk around but each to their own!

A beautiful place in a beautiful city
A beautiful place in a beautiful city. We stopped by and saw horses hanging out outside. Hoped to catch a glimpse of the Prime Minister, but no such luck!

Don't miss this castle
Visited here on our 16 day tour of Denmark with family and friends. I have been here numerous times but I still enjoy it. The horses were outside that day so that was an interesting change. Our group enjoyed the ruins the best and were amazed at the fascinating history of the castle. The kitchen also is a lot of fun.

Reccomended!
Me and some friends visited Christiansborg Slot a few years ago during the cultural night in Copenhagen. The que was miles long, but it was so worth it when we finally entered. It was nice to see the cultural events and to meet the politicians and civil servants that work there.

Not to be missed
A palace full of splendour and history which continues to be added to daily as it is used by the Prime Minister for various purposes. A great deal to see and admire but not always as much information provided as I would have liked. Fortunately, I had a guided group passing through whilst I was there and learnt a vast amount of interesting facts that brought the Palace to life for me.

My Visit
This is an great looking palace. The statue and the the building are both beautiful. We did not visit interior but the exterior looks great.

The Largest Castle, Found in the Center
This is the huge royal castle in the center of town, a must-see site. It covers a lot of land, and the royal family does spend time here. Big stone plaza in front, come use some trees or shade.
Jul 15, 2024Blues79
Beautiful
We thought the Palace was well worth visiting, we visited with the Copenhagen card so entry was quick and easy. We spent a good few hours there. The reception rooms were beautiful, the information cards are in Danish and English and it was easy to follow from room to room, was not crowded at all. We also visited the Stables (note the horses are away for their summer break), Kitchen and ruins.

This building makes a statement
There is no doubt that the palace is impressive but we really visited to explore the original 1167 ruins & the 1369 ruins of the initial Copenhagen Castle that are underneath the current palace. The ruins contain predominantly the base stones of walls but also interior home walls, drains and plumbing. Whilst here it’s worth visiting the tower (opens at 11am) to get great views over the city and even across to Sweden.
Jul 6, 2024emilygI6675IT
Worth a Visit.
Very much recommend. Very impressive palace, and was in time for the tour of the state rooms in English. Guide was very knowledgeable, and allowed us to take our time / ask questions. Lots to see on display both historical & modern. All well displayed & maintained. Also can see the view from the tower / ruins beneath & kitchens which are worth a look.

Must see in Copenhagen
Visited here and got to see royal reception rooms which were incredibly elaborate.. My favorite part was the royal kitchen and the ruins which told the history of the castle. Did not get to see stables or Parliament or the chapel.
Jul 1, 2024Travellingonwheels
Not to be missed
This is the first thing I’ve done so far in Copenhagen which I feel has been worth the money. Your ticket gives you access to 4 different areas in the complex including the beautifully decorated state rooms and the underground ruins of the earlier buildings. Allow lots of time if you want to see everything - particularly if you manage to get lost in the ruins as I did. They have gone to a lot of trouble to make these areas wheelchair accessible so this Slot should be on everyone’s visit list.

Christianborg Palace was amazing day walking in history
A visit to Christianborg Palace is a great way to spend the day. The grounds are lovely and the horses can often be seen in the penned area in front of the palace entrance. Once home to kings and queens, the Palace now houses the Danish Parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Ministry of State.

Christianborg Castle (Royal Reception Rooms) worth a visit after Rosenborg castle, but preferrably not on the same day
We visited the Christiansborg Castle one day after the Rosenborg Castle. There are many similarities in the sense of splendor, richly decorated rooms, and more along that line, all of it collected over many centuries. Obviously intended to impress guests, to demonstrate that the kingdom of Denmark is solid and going strong. Common consideration is that you keep wondering who has paid for all this. And also, what has been obtained legally and what is robbed from far-away countries in past centuries when colonialism was not frowned upon like we do nowadays. The main difference with Rosenborg is that it takes less longer to see the Royal Reception Rooms, numbered 1 to 19. Following a map that is handed out at the entrance, everything you need to know can be read and is explained briefly but clearly. We see only a small part of the castle, as the remainder is not open to the public, probably also not offering such beautiful sights as the Royal Reception Rooms. Separately, we visited the Royal Kitchen as well as the Ruins under Christianborg, both worthy of your attention but covered in a separate review. We did not visit the Royal Stables, as it was closed at the time we were in the vicinity. Our Copenhagen Discover Card was accepted without any hassle and allowed us free access. There were no waiting times for a free time slot when we were there. Plastic slippers are available (mandatory footwear, fitting around your shoes) to protect the floors. Given our free access, I cannot comment on the value-for-money aspect.

An absolute must whilst in Copenhagen!
We visited this slot (palace) as part of an Insight Vacations 'Northern Capitals of Europe' tour. Absolutely stunning - well worth the visit! So much to take in - the tapestries in the 'Great Hall' are amazing works of art.
Jun 16, 2024548scottg
Large complex worth visiting
There are different parts that you can tour. We visited the ruins, the official reception rooms and the kitchen. If you can see only one of those, the reception rooms will not disappoint you. The interior rooms are lovely and impressive: bring your camera, of course. The staff is hospitable. We visited on a Sunday when it was free to step inside the chapel and see it, also quite nice.

Another great palace to visit in Copenhagen
Copenhagen has a number of great palaces to visit and this is a very special one to visit. It gives great insight into the history of the Danish royal family, past and present and there are also visits to the royal kitchen, royal stables and to some ruins under the castle that you can include in your visit.
Jun 13, 2024EssexBetty64
Lovely insight into Danish royal history
A lovely insight into Danish royal history. The ticket covers several different buildings. We loved the ruins below ground. Unfortunately the church is only open on Sundays. We couldn’t enter the palace until after 2.00 as there was an event on do we returned later. Well worth a visit.
Jun 4, 2024sekerportakalii
An impressive palace
This palace is right in the heart of Copenhagen, and it's a must-visit for tourists. It's still used by royalty for receptions and special occasions. I suggest setting aside at least half a day to explore it. You can buy tickets at the palace or online. I found the Useuum app really helpful for audio guides during my visit, so I recommend downloading it.

Beautiful palace
We chose the regular tour so we did not see the royal kitchen, stables etc and it was still worth it! So many amazing rooms with beautiful details.
May 28, 2024u2fan56
Get to see lot of different things
My wife and I did the Christiansborg Slot tour recently while on vacation. We love seeing historical places and this one did not disappoint. We pre-booked ticket on-line and I recommend to do the same. You get to see the royal kitchen, stables and state rooms. The state rooms were closed when we got there due to event going on. They opened up about 2 hours later so we had lunch in between. The state rooms were very impressive. I recommend this one over Rosenburg due to being more modern and opulent.
May 11, 2024ccfierro
Worth the visit!
Amazing palace with so much to see! The rooms were fantastic, the kitchen was very neat (try lifting the pots!) and the tower had the best views! Highly recommend visiting! We didn't make it to the stables but two of the horses were outside when we were there.

For history lovers
Historical site situated on islet combining history and current danish power represented by Supreme Court, parliament and prime minister presence. Gammel strand in the neighbourhood. Many buildings open for excursions with history everywhere from from ground floor till ceiling with paintings 🖼️ chandeliers decorations and sculptures

Nice palace
Very nice and large palace with a variety of sections to visit like the ruines, the royal stables, the royal kitchen and much more.

Well worth a visit
We visited the royal reception rooms . They are a great statement of Danish craftsmanship and design. The tapestries are amazing. We spent an hour wandering through these fantastic rooms.

Beautiful palace
Stunning palace with lovely grounds. It was a treat to see the horses being exercised too. Well worth a visit if you’re in Copenhagen.

The best palace in Copenhagen.
My personal favourite attraction in Copenhagen. We visited on a snowy Thursday. It was quiet-ish (still plenty of tourists for a January day) and it was fantastic. Rich with history and the ruins are such a great addition. The staff were friendly and the lockers where you store your bags are perfectly safe. Our one criticism is signage. Like a lot of the other attractions in Copenhagen, signs seems to be a weak point. We didn't know where to go to start or whether there was a "starting point", so we just followed some others.

Get the package to see the most
We visited the slot on a cold December afternoon. Without crowds it is a bit difficult to find the entrance as it is not clearly marked. Visited the palace, kitchen and ruins. Missed the stables as they close early. I would place this lower on the list below the Art Museum and National Museum.

Beautiful castle
We visited used the Copenhagen card, there are two types we got the one with transport. The reception rooms take about 2 to 3 hours. Like most of the museums there are lockers for big bulky coats upon need. Toilets, again another feature we noticed in Copenhagen are first class. We were getting a bit museums out. There are separate buildings as well as stables, if you into horses could be a places for you, but few stuffed one if you are sensitive be aware. There lot of art and skilled decorations in the buildings. Well worth a visit

Interesting visit
Interesting couple of hours. Started in the reception rooms, used the phone app commentary which provided a history of the royal family and a descriptor each room, it did get boring after a while but was good for the overview. The rooms are nice but not stunning. We then visited the kitchen - no more than 15- 30 mins to visit but ok nonetheless. The ruins were ok with the app commentary, without it there were information boards for the history. The stables and carriages were last. We couldn’t get close enough to pat a horse but did get to see several of them in their stables.

Very nice.
Very nice. Nothing overwhelming, which is fine. What they have is impressive. The tapestry hall is great.

Royal history
This is a very imposing and impressive building. As a fan of “Borgen”, I loved spotting many places I recognised from the TV show. There are several attractions here, but we visited the royal reception rooms, the kitchens and the ruins - entry to all was included with the Copenhagen Card. If you’re in a rush, prioritise the reception rooms, as they were stunning.
Dec 5, 2023andypandyjones
Borgen
A really interesting building. Whilst we didn’t go inside, I enjoyed walking around the outside as I recognised many locations from the TV series Borgen.

A must see
We visited on our last day in Copenhagen as it was shut on a Monday. Great rainy day option in the winter months Found service friendly and guiding, same great interesting features throughout with lots of information in both Danish and English. The ruins were our favourite - the stables were a little disappointing as couldn’t get close enough to the horses. But such an interesting way to spend the morning (took about 3 hours to cover it all)

Great palace cold service
Exploring the old palace itself was great. the service gets a one star, if that. I was worried that I wouldn’t have enough time to see the jewels so wanted to start there. It’s a separate entrance from the castle. I was told I couldn’t do that and when asked why wasn’t given an answer. When finished with the tour went into the gift shop and I asked what flavor the Christmas tea was, was told it was on the label. As I don’t read Danish and the fact that they had a price tag over it didn’t help, the person in front of me asked where she could get postcards stamps and was told “at a kiosk” when asked where she would find one was told “around” a little helpfulness would go a long way.

Royal Attractions
We chose to visit Christiansborg among the other Palaces in Cph. I think it was a good choice as it has so many different things to see, that will actually offer you a glimpse in the city's history through the evolution of the once fortress - later Palace. This is the building that the Danish Parliament, the Queens office and the Prime Minister's Office are housed. We visited most of the attractions, except from the Royal Kitchen. It was very interesting - especially the tapestries in The Great Hall. They actually "describe" 1,100 years of Danish history from the Viking Age to the year 2000 . A wonderful attraction for the kids is a visit to the ruins under Christiansborg Palace, where one can see the remains of the curtain wall from Bishop Absalon’s 12th century castle, as well as the foundations of the Blue Tower, where the King's daughter was incarcerated for 22 years. There, you can find some kind of mystery solving attraction as you run up to curiosity boxes providing clues for Leonora and her story - a fun activity for the kids!

Short visit
Lovely, not busy at all, no furnishings bar a very large dining table, amazing tapestries commissioned by current queen. Very ornate stucco and painted ceilings. 40 mins and done.
Nov 8, 2023Abamagal
Enjoyed kitchen, reception rooms closed during our visit.
The reception rooms were closed during our recent visit. We toured the kitchen which we enjoyed. It would have been a nice addition to have some history associated with the items on display.

This is my favorite Danish castle
Visited here on our two week tour of Denmark with family and a friend. Although I have been here on numerous occasions, I still love it. If I had to pick only one castle in Denmark to visit, this would be it. I especially enjoy the kitchen where a meal is being prepared and the ruins where you wander around the old foundations.
Oct 15, 2023CorradoR964
Wonderful visit
Royal palace in Copenhagen. It's a very well organized experience, from the royal halls down to the basements showing old Copenhagen Castles history. We really enjoyed the self-guided tour thru the App that allows to follow step by step all the major attractions, with clear and detailed explanations.

Brush with royalty
Really enjoyed time spent in the reception rooms. Was able to download the app which provided wonderful audio guide tour. Bright grand rooms filled with history. The library was simply breathtaking. Great distinct feeling from the other palaces be visited in this trip. The ruins and stables were also included with the Copenhagen card but did not enjoy those nearly as much as the reception rooms!
Sep 30, 2023researchplanaholic
Gorgeous rooms and splendid artwork
So this was truly a magnificent palace (and we saw a lot of palaces on this trip to Copenhagen)! Although there was no guided tour option, we just strolled walking from room to room reading the plaques that were placed explaining the room's significance or decor, i.e., gorgeous tapestries. One of the floor's of the palace is currently used by the Prime Minister and it appears at times the Palace is used for ceremonial functions and events. Although you have various sections you may tour, e.g., the kitchens, the stables, the ruins, we felt the main receptions rooms and palace area were sufficient. The ruins are a pass if you have small ones with you as the area is dark and you pass through tunnel like spaces. But some might find that works to burn off little one's energy so I suppose you'd have to decide. Given that the palace seemed central to all the other sights in the city and if you have a Copenhagen Card to use for entry, seems a shame not to stop in and see the beautiful building.
Sep 10, 2023QueenBAus
Beautiful
Wow this palace is lovely, beautifully presented. It’s a shame you have to buy tickets separately but the rooms were worth it. My only issue if you can’t download the app you have no idea what you are looking at except in the tapestry room wow
Sep 9, 2023too_few_trips_1
Allow time for the four different parts of the palace
I enjoyed the mix of experiences, from the high life of the palace to the roots of Copenhagen history in the ruins. The four difference experiences (including the kitchen and the stables) offered a great overview of the Danish monarchy and its current construction.
Sep 4, 2023W5746OSdavidw
As near to royalty as we got
There are four things to see here: the stables, the kitchen, the reception rooms and the ruins. You can pay for each separately, but I should allow 3 hours and visit all four (DK165). Watch opening times: I know that the stables are open only from 1.30pm. In the stables you can see the horses: beautiful greys (i.e. whitish hair). They are regularly to be seen taken outside for exercising). Then there is the collection of carriages including the golden coach (sorry, there is no comparison with our British golden coach). The old kitchens, across on the other side of the square, are quite interesting. The reception rooms are really fascinating. We were lucky to be able to join a guided tour. The ruins were very clean and tidy, almost devoid of atmosphere, but the information boards were excellent if you want the history of the place.

À faire
Visite très sympa faites avec des enfants On a visité les écuries les cuisines les salles de réception et c’est vraiment sympa à faire. Les pièces sont grandes et somptueuses.

Uitkijkpunt is heel leuk!
Wij zijn niet naar binnen geweest, maar zijn wel naar het uitkijkpunt geweest. Dat is gratis en echt een aanrader. Prachtig uitzicht over de stad. Het kan zijn dat je beneden even in de rij staat, maar nooit ontzettend lang. Je kan voor het grootste gedeelte met de lift naar boven, dus ook geschikt voor mensen die slecht ter been zijn
Oct 14, 2024lesleywL6201PS
Immersive
An excellent and highly extensive exhibition of historical artefacts: weapons, medals, models, uniforms and more. Particularly impressive was the immersive army encampment, complete with a tank that had seen actual combat. Well-organised and visually impressive. There is also a dress-up opportunity.

Danish War Museum
The Danish war museum was an interesting off the beaten path museum. They have an impressive collection of cannon and artillery pieces from their history. They also have a fascinating rendering of a peace keeping base in Afghanistan. Second floor has tons of naval and Air Force exhibits.
Jul 22, 2024284carlhenrikh
Unique!
The museum has really nailed the atmosphere! Especially the Afghanistan exhibition was very impactful! Well worth a visit, very cheap as well.

Diverse war museum
Very informative. All staff were polite and helpful with directions and where facilities were. A nice breadth of stuff on display so suitable for whatever period of history you like the most. Very good exhibition on recent conflict in Middle East.
Feb 29, 2024E4941QWjodiec
Amazing stuff!
Genuinely really interesting with good information and translation available. We’ve been to many war museums/sites and these still had Incredible things to see that we haven’t seen before. Their camp bastion exhibit was AMAZING!! my husband having been there couldn’t believe how accurate/realistic it was!
Jan 29, 2024J-Szy8
Don't let the first floor fool you.
Wow, this was my kind of war museum. The first floor housed the artillery pieces and an Afghanistan, GWOT, walk-thru display. The second floor is a more traditional museum. Great displays of Danish warfare. Huge naval section and displays of armor, uniforms and equipment. Definitely worth the visit.
Oct 3, 2023W5746OSdavidw
Fascinating collection of war material
We had not intended to visit but popped in with our Copenhagen Card and were very pleased that we did. We emerged after about 2 hours. There is a vast amount of history on display, particularly upstairs where miles of glass cabinets house model ships, guns, all sorts of artefacts, all very well documented. The photographic exhibition downstairs of the atrocities in Afghanistan and the Ukraine were very emotionally wrenching, but it is important for people to know what is going on. I would keep young children away from that section. A very large convoy of limousines and patrol police had passed us in the street the previous day. We learned that Zelensky was on a state visit. It made the photographs even more pointant.

Understanding Denmark's deadliest conflicts
The Krigsmuseet (War Museum) of Denmark is located near to the Christianborg Palace, where the entrance is marked by a large Yellow signboard "Krigsmuseet". To get to this location, recommend to take the Metro to Gammel Strand Station, and walk southwards. The Copenhagen Card allows you to enter into this attraction for free, but you will need to scan your tickets at the Main Counter. The Krigsmuseet features two levels of attractions, which are all open-spaced (except the War on Afghanistan segment which is closed up) and provides a concise summary about the conflicts which Denmark has been involved in, and how it has shaped its current stance on defence. It's an eye-opener and exposed visitors to the horrors and reality behind conflict, but it isn't for everyone. I would recommend only those interested in seeing a different museum from Palaces and architecture, to try this out.
Aug 13, 2023RetreatJunkieNA
Well done museum, emotionally wrenching
We went during an exhibit about the war in Afghanistan. The exhibit is exceptional -immersive and educational in a way I've rarely experienced. But that, combined with the entry exhibit about the war in Ukraine, was quite emotionally wrenching. I suppose I should expect nothing less of a war museum, but I was surprised at the people bringing their young children to those exhibits. I can imagine that many of them will be traumatized from some of the photos and other memorabilia. I commend the museum for doing such an excellent job of presenting the facts of various historical situations without offering opinions. Don't shy away - DO go, as understanding the facticity of war is essential to being a good citizen. But do yourself a favor and schedule this museum in the morning and then something lighter in the afternoon, perhaps a funny movie, or you might have a hard time sleeping.
Jul 26, 2023AngelicaCora1912
Interesting and unique museum
There was a lot of interesting military artefacts to see here. I particularly loved the Afghanistan exhibit, it was presented in a really unique and engaging way
Jul 15, 2023Steviefull
500 years of military history
The museum as a whole was very well laid out and with plenty of space to look at the displays and exhibits, the particular highlight for me was the display of the Afghanistan war, showing an American gun outpost a local stone house and a destroyed American jeep amongst other things, it adds a realism to conflicts going on today. the displays in most cases are hands on and the elastic band guns gave two fortysomethings so much more enjoyment than they should have. A good way to spend a couple of hours.

MUESTRA LA HISTORIA MILITAR DANESA
Se ubica justo frente a la biblioteca, en el antiguo arsenal del rey Christian IV. Se pueden ver cañones y tanques al ingresar al predio. Un museo que muestra la historia militar danesa a lo largo de 500 años. Podemos ver armas, uniformes y equipamiento bélico.

Fantastisk oplevelse for 9- og 53 årig. Fik rundvisning med hands on på masser af våben og gode forklaringer og historisk info.

Rigtig fint museum
Super spændende museum med udstillinger om Danmarks militær gennem de sidste 500 år. Kunne dog være fedt med flere køretøjer end kun tanken i gården, men der findes heldigvis andre museer som har fokus på militære køretøjer. Brugte en 2½ time der.

Bel museo militare
Museo ben realizzato, che espone numerosi cimeli degli eserciti danesi nel tempo. Molto interessante l'esposizione al primo piano, con armi ed uniformi fino alla seconda guerra mondiale, cannoni vari al piano terra assieme ad un allestimento delle moderne missioni di pace all'estero. Merita una visita.

Impressionnant!
Oui, j’ai mis “excellent” sur un musée de la guerre … mais j’assume et j’ai quand même quelques bémols. Balayons les bémols - le 1er étage : belle - grande, très … grande - collection de canons, y en a pour tous les goûts, de toutes les époques … ; une petite propagande pour l’armée; une reconstitution de l’Afghanistan avec témoignages (en danois, je n’ai pas pu en apprécier la teneur), qui prolonge à mon sens la propagande et reste discutable; le dernier bémol : le musée ferme à 17h en février (ce qui ne nous a pas laissé le loisir de tout apprécier… après on a compris que tous les musées à Copenhague ferment à 17h) Les plus : le 2eme étage : une immense et impressionnante collection d’équipements militaires de toutes les époques, d’une grande diversité et d’une provenance variée… un nombre incalculable de maquettes de navire reconstituée à une bonne échelle, au milieu d’autres trésors à contempler pour leur beauté (si on oublie leur utilité) et leur prouesses techniques. Et n’oublions pas dans les plus le bâtiment en lui même. L’arrivée au 2eme étage m’a coupé le souffle (et pas à cause du nombre de marches!)

Stupenda
e da vedere uno dei più bei musei militari al mondo. Ci sono cannini regalati a Federico IV il sovrnao inamorato di uan monaca di clausura fiorentina nel 1700 da parte dei veneziani, pezzi di navi bandieri austraiche e s'imparamolto sulle due guerre danesi tedesce. Ottimo il personale i percorsi multimediali e anche molto ma veramente molto bella la prezenza di armi e armature italiane. Guardate anche all'ingresso il carro leopardi 1 che é satto impegnatio in uan batatglia corazzata in bosnia da vedere e da imparare il miglior museo del genere al mondo.

Overraskende spændende museum!
Vi havde en helt overraskende god oplevelse på Krigsmuseet. Vi manglede noget at lave en regnvejrsdag og slog et smut her forbi. Jeg var her med skolen for mange år siden, hvor jeg husker det som kedelige montre på montre. Museet har siden skiftet navn, fra Tøjhusmuseet til det noget mere retvisende Krigsmuseet. Bygningen er flot istandsat og gjort mere levende. Min søn meldte sig på børneaktiviteten som rekrut for en dag. Jeg ved ikke om det var i anledningen af efterårsferien, men det var i hvert fald et hit hos ham. Herefter fik vi en guidet rundvisning i børnehøjde, som vi voksne også fik noget ud af. Vi blev overalt mødt af meget engagerede medarbejdere, og vi kunne have brugt meget længere tid. Der er en stor museumsbutik til.

Spændende og meget gennemført museum
Virkelig mange kanoner. Meget gennemført og virkelighedstro udstilling om Danmarks krig i Afghanistan. (Viser livet som soldat før afrejse, i Afghanistan (en hel base er bygget), og ved hjemkomst). Skal absolut ses!

Passato e presente della guerra
Consiglio vivamente: è il museo della guerra in danimarca e dei danesi fino acinaue secoli fa. Davvero lo consiglio

Sehr interessant
Im EG stehen zunächst nur Kanonen. Die Beschreibungen sind dürftig. Dann kommt eine Sonderausstellung zum Thema Afghanistan. Sehr informativ und mit Sorgfalt gestaltet. Der erste Stock ist sehr gut illustriert und hat sehr gute Exponate. Klar geht es immer besser. Ich habe allerdings viel im 1 Stock über die Skandinavischen Kriege gelernt! .

Un musée superbe, notamment pour les maquettes de la Marine :)
Le musée de la Guerre est, certes, petit mais mérite vraiment le détour. En effet, vous aurez l'occasion de visiter une reconstitution du camp de base des Danois en Afghanistan. Une exposition immersive qui ne laisse pas tranquille avec une véritable portée pédagogique sur la réalité des théâtres. Ensuite, le rez-de-chaussée regroupe l'artillerie (un peu moins intéressant pour mais rigolo). Enfin, le 2ème étage regroupe l'histoire du Danemark ainsi que l'évolution de la marine et des équipements. Les maquettes sont superbes !!! Et on apprend plein plein de choses :) Voilà, à faire quand il fait beau ou moche !

Guns and Uniforms
Ik ben altijd geïnteresseerd in de geschiedenis van een ander land en dit museum geeft een andere manier om deze geschiedenis weer te geven. Op de begane grond staan kanonnen uit de eeuwen heen uitgestald. Wet staat er een beetje door elkaar heen doch alles is rondom te bekijken. Op de eerste verdieping, te bereiken met een wenteltrap, staan uniformen, handwapens en modellen klaar om de verschillende veldslagen en oorlogen uit de Deense geschiedenis te vertellen. Op platen wordt in het Deens en Engels in het kort het verhaal verteld. Er is een aparte expositieruimte aanwezig om de Deense bijdrage in Afghanistan ten toon te stellen. De eerste verdieping is op dit moment nog in de verbouwing dus het deed hier en daar nog wat rommelig aan. Ik weet echter zeker dat het in de toekomst de presentaties nog beter tot zijn recht komen.

Zeer degelijk uitgebouwd
Gelijkvloers, hoofdzakelijk kanonnen, kanonlopen, allerlei schietmateriaal. Dat leek dus zeer saai maar gelukkig was een gedeelte een eerbetoon aan de Deense soldaten in Afghanistan. Dit was zeer realistisch uitgebouwd en de moeite om te bezoeken. De 1ste verdieping ging over alle mogelijke oorlogen. Dit was wel echt de moeite. Heel veel maquettes van boten, maar ook een gedeelte waarin oorlogen, samen met allerlei gebeurtenissen in dezelfde periode, zeer gedetailleerd werden uitgelegd. Zoals zo vaak, als je echt alles wil doornemen ben je voor uren vertrokken (inbegrepen in Copenhagen Card).

Intressant om danska krig och deras flotta
Besökte museet med anledning av deras utställning om Danmarks deltagande i ISAF kriget i Afghanistan. Intressant och till del gripande att ta del av deras historia från Afghanistan. Danskarna var i en betydligt tuffare region än vi, utställningen gav en intressant inblick i deras upplevelser. I övrigt ger museet en bra beskrivning av Danmarks krig från ca 1500 fram till dags dato. Det ger sig självt att historieskildringen skiljer sig från vår egen och det är alltid intressant att ta del av hur Danmark uppfattade krigen mot oss från Kalmarunionens dagar till början av 1700-talet. Museet är relativt litet och det är i princip bara ens eget intresse för militärhistoria som avgör hur mycket tid man spenderar här.

visita storica
Una notevole raccolta di armi vecchie e nuove, eccellentemente conservate, nel museo anche "pezzi" di notevole valore artistico, ambiente "militare" molto silenzioso e ordinato, c'è anche una ricostruzione di ambienti in teatri internazionali (afghanistan) piuttosto meticolosa, il prezzo di entrata non economico, l'ambiente e pulito, wc compresi. Vale una visita

Im Rahmen der Copenhagen Card
Wir hatten die Copenhagen Card und da war dieses Museum mit dabei. Das Museum hat unten eine riesige Auswahl an Kanone und Artillerie aus mehreren Jahrhunderten. Es ist sehr beeindruckend zu sehen wie der Lauf sich im Jahre verändert hat. Des weiteren hat es unten eine Sonderausstellung zum Afghanistan Krieg gegeben wo man das gefühl hat mittendrin zu sein da alles sehr authentisch nachgebaut ist . Oben eine Ausstellung zur allgemeinen Geschichte des Heeres von Dänemark. Für Kinder jedoch oben eher uninteressant. Ob ich jedoch den Eintritt ohne die Karte bezahlt hätte bezweifle ich. Da es aber im Rahmen der Copenhagen Card inbegriffen ist fand ich es doch spannend.

Une collection complète, gigantesque, bien organisé, a voir absolument.
Après un petite entrée trop discrète, on rentre et découvre alors dans un sous-sol géant une collection énorme d’armes lourdes, canons et pièces artillerie, de l’époque des viking jusqu’au année 2010. Ils on même reproduit une scène d’une unité danoise pendant la guerre d’Afghanistan. Ensuite on crois que c’est fini, et la au premier étage encore plus : énorme surprise ! une immense collection super organisé chronologique sur armes légères et moyennes, uniformes, technique, appareillages etc de l’époque de la royauté, viking, 1 et 2 guerre mondiale et jusqu’à maintenant; aussi en parallèle l’évolution des bateaux sous marins frégate etc reproduit en maquette super réaliste. A voir absolument pour les amateurs ou curieux si on va a Copenhague. C’est même dommage qu’il qu’il n’y ai pas assez de pub pour ce superbe musée, bien plus fourni et 10 fois plus intéressant que celui de l’art danois par exemple ...

Mooie opzet, veel te zien
Dit was toch wel één van de mooiste plekken die ik bezocht heb. Men heeft een grote collectie, heeft alles goed gerangschikt en de expositie over de inzet van het Deense leger in Afghanistan is aanbevelenswaardig!

sehr interessant
interessantes Museum, Eintritt in Copenhagen card inklusive. Untern im Erdgeschoss sind Kanonen und Mörser und eine Militärbasis aus Afghanistan, in dem man ein minimales Gefühl für das Leben in so einem Lager erhalten kann. Oben sind die dänischen Kriege mit Sammelstücke verewigt.

Krigisk historia
Tøjhusmuseet är otroligt spännande om man är intresserad av militär historia. Fullt av kanoner, uniformer och annan militär utrustning.

Estuve en el museo los días de la Exposición mundial de J.J.R. Tolkien, y fue espectacular, trajeron los grabados ,dibujos y mapas originales escritos de la mano del propio Tolkien. Sin mencionar las armas y el resto de objetos originales utilizados en las películas. El museo en general es bastante amplio y muy interesante si quieres conocer algo de la historia bélica de este país, que no es poca. Digno de ver.

top museum
Im Erdgeschoss kann man eine riesige Sammlung von Kanonen, Mörsern und Geschützen begutachten. Ebenfalls im ersten Stock befindet sich ein Weg, der einem durch die Geschichte der Dänen in Afganistan führt. Im Obergeschoss faszinierte mich, al grosser Herr der Ringe Fan, vor allem die Tolkien-Ausstellung. Aber auch die Ausstellung der Dänischen Kriege ist ein Blick wert. Die angenehmen Temperaturen im Sommer und der freie Eintritt machen das Museum zu einem Mussm.

Del av Nationalmuseet. Fri entre. Militärhistoria.
Detta är en del av Nationalmuseet, men ligger en bit bort. Vi ville dit för att se en utställning om 9 april 1940-Då tyskarna kom. Vi hade missat att utställningen inte var på själva Nationalmuseet men vi hann till Töjhuset innan de stängde. Museet är litet och lättillgängligt och klaras av på kort tid om man inte är superintresserad av militärhistoria.
