What to do and see in Christianshavn, Zealand: The Best Sights & Landmarks

December 9, 2021 Trinity Boughner

Copenhagen was once a Viking fishing settlement, and you can still find traces of the Norse explorers here. Visit reconstructed villages, the remains of a 1,000-year-old castle, and museums dedicated to the notorious raiders. Copenhagen also features a blend of modern architecture and historical artifacts such as the Round Tower observatory – a wonderful example of 17th-century architecture. Art galleries, narrow streets, canals, parks, and Baroque churches round out the city’s cultural attractions.

Location: Located in Chirstianshavn, which is easily accessible and can lead on nicely to Freetown Christiana or a Canal Tour. Price: Free with the Copenhagen Card - If you're planning on doing lots of tourist attractions or using public transport, this is a fantastic purchase from 54Euro+. Otherwise, this is 40DK per adult. Definitely a must-do activity, the views are amazing and better than those as Rundetaarn. This attraction will test your physical fitness as you climb 400-450 steps to the very top - doesn't sound like much, but when you realise that the nice stairs at the entrance turn into steep wooden steps that decrease in size and wrap around the slightly humid and stuffy tower, then you realise how big 400 actually is. There are several points to stop as you walk up the tower, but be mindful that the large bells ring hourly, and you could be right next to them. The last few steps are akin to a ladder with a smaller door to exit from. Once out, you can walk around and view the scenery or you can continue to walk up the copper outdoor steps to the peak. If you're slightly larger or physically unfit, I would think twice about this attraction, especially in hotter weather as the tower itself is very humid. There is no elevator and once you're up, you have to come down.

Christiania

This hippy enclave is an alternative community unto itself, with local handicrafts and a disproportionate number of vegetarians, artists and young people. Go for a walk around the lake or check out one of the watering holes. Best to visit during the day.
