Overlooking the Julius Thomesens grounds and Forum, the old church is a landmark in the Frederiksberg neighborhood. An impressive brick structure, inspired by Roman and Byzantine architecture. read more

Very cool experience visiting. Due to being out of the way from the main downtown areas the church…read morewas not very crowded. The architecture, exterior and interior were both incredible and plenty of chairs to sit in to take it all in.
It's off-the-beaten-path and a trek to get there being so north from central city, but it's worth…read morethe investment. Grundtvigs Kirke is one of the only examples of expressionist architecture in churches around the world. From the moment you turn the corner to see the church, it's stunning. It seems other worldly. It's open throughout the year for visitors. When my friend and I went in at 3 p.m. on a Thursday in October 2021, the doors were open and an organist was playing. A few tourists filled the seats snapping photos of the unique design. If you love design and architecture, definitely go here. Admission is free and they sell a few items inside to help fund the church's Christmas charity work.

Its lush greenery and blooming flowers create a tranquil atmosphere perfect for reflection. Notable figures buried here include philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, author Hans Christian Andersen, and physicist Niels Bohr, adding historical and cultural significance. This lovely environment and rich heritage make Assistens Cemetery a great place to quietly stroll through alone, with a friend/significant other or with family.
It's a fun little tower to climb. Can't remember the entry cost, but pro tip: if you intend to see…read moremany sites here, get the Copenhagen card which applies to this church. Climb difficulty depends on your fitness level but imo it's easy. Steep inside, but easy. The outside is a little scary off you're afraid of heights, and it narrows as you get closer to the top. The spiral stairs part is outside the church. Plus you get the chance to meander through the streets on your way here.
I hyped everyone up for the Church of Our Saviour. My kids know it as the Tower of Doom…read more First up, it is a church that is still in use, but it also gives you a breathtaking view of the city. It's included on the Copenhagen Card but you still need to book your entry time online to avoid crowds. They do not allow walk ins - or at least they didn't in July. They also close the climb up if there's rain or is excessively windy for safety reasons. I took my friend and my two kids, ages 4 and 8. They did not want to go. I gave them a choice to stay at the front desk and they ended up making it up, since they didn't want to be left behind. You can store your larger bags (like backpacks) by the front desk at your own discretion. You should. It gets a bit cramped. I kept my purse on me though. As opposed to the Ruundetarn, there are a lot of steps. Roughly 400 up and another 400 down. It's not terrible but the closer you are to the top, it can get narrow and cramped. If you're tall, watch your head. It also gets to the point that groups going in one direction need to stop to let the ones coming down go just so you have room to go up. The last set of stairs to get outside is more like a ladder and you really feel it when you're getting ready to get back inside the church and you look down to see how steep and narrow those steps are. It is a beautiful view though! Your heart is pumping from the climb up, the wind hampers your breathing a bit... I heard a number of people breathing quite hard - but you're there! You go up further until you can go no more. When I went, there was a lady who was seemingly stuck at the very top and didn't budge from it, but no matter. (She spoke to us... just didn't let go.) Both of my kids made it up too despite their reservations. It took time to get them moving at first but they did it! My eldest got down without issues but going down those ladder steps, I just held my 4 year old in one arm and took us both down 2 flights before I let him down. But yes, younger kids can do it! (They got ice cream afterwards.) If you have a fear of heights or claustrophobia.... You can definitely turn around if you really can't do it. I couldn't stare down at the ground for long while at the very top (it is a bit high) but I didn't feel unsafe while up there. That was definitely an experience to remember! A bit of a thrill at the very end, haha.
The dome at the top of the church.
