What travelers say:
An amazing collection of artifacts from all over the world! The Viking section was the best, including the remains of the world’s longest Viking ship, an extremely well-done video of the Viking quest to reach Rome, and several rune stones.

National Museum of Denmark Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The predecessor of the National Museum of Denmark was the mansion of a wealthy businessman, and later it became the residence of the Danish crown princes. In 1807, it officially became the National Museum. It houses the collections of the palace treasury since 1650 and historical materials related to Danish culture, and is also the largest museum in Denmark. The 3-story high building displays many antiquities of Danish prehistoric culture, the Viking Age, the Middle Ages, and the daily necessities and precious cultural relics of the Eskimos living in Greenland. There are also ethnic materials from the 18th to 19th centuries, and collection areas of Asian, American, African and other ethnic groups. The first floor is the Danish exhibition area. Among them, the bronze "Dorrent's Sun Carriage" from 1400 BC is a very valuable cultural relic here. It was discovered in 1902 and has precious research value.

The Danish National Museum also collects a lot of ancient art, but many biological skeletons look very shocking, Denmark's ancient history and biological collections are more.
The Danish National Museum needs to charge tickets, this is the best place to know the whole history of Denmark. Because we were closed when we arrived, we couldn't visit, and we didn't have time to visit the next day, which was a pity.
The Danish National Museum is located in the heart of Copenhagen and is the largest museum of cultural history in Denmark.
Beautiful scenery, pleasant scenery, lingering
It was closed on Monday, but because of the visiting relationship, a staff member escorted it, opened the back door and visited the empty museum. A wonderful feeling of a museum night. There are skeletons of ancient yaks and inscriptions of the Viking Age. The whole museum is basically centered around the Viking, as well as the war history of later period and Germany and Sweden. Interestingly, there is a little girl's bones and a person's sacrifice to the dead. The girl's identity is unknown, but it is said that she was drifting from Germany. She was put on a wooden boat after her death, wearing Viking costumes. The costumes are perfectly presented in a duplicate version. The sacrifice to the people is a kind of custom and belief which was confirmed a hundred years ago and quite educational.
Very nice place, there are many things that can grow knowledge here, it is recommended.
