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.

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.

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.

"Every man's life is a fairy tale, written by God's fingers..." - Hans Christian Andersen…read more The "English Church" is what Dane's call St Alban's Anglican Church in København, Denmark. On my way to a photo shoot near Den lille Havfrue (the Little Mermaid Statue) I stumbled across this charming old church built in Gothic Revival style. The "English Church" was not on my A-list on this visit to the ancient city built by the mighty Vikings. As I approached it became even more surreal as the giant Gefion Fountain in honor of a Viking Goddess greeted me. The courtyard also displayed many prominent figures from mythology. Grasp this for a second... a Christian Church seemingly protected by Norse folklore and mythology? Simply breathtaking! Unfortunately, I did not have the opportunity to attend Church service or explore the interior (which I tend to do) due to my schedule. However, I did manage to soak in the ambiance and spirituality of the surroundings. Danish windmills and old military barracks scatter. And of course, the surreal scene of the giant Gefion Fountain with the "English Church" as a backdrop will live in my memories forever. In the end, I highly recommend a visit to St Alban's Anglican Church if in København. Discover it on the way to Den lille Havfrue! You don't have to be versed in the Anglican Order to appreciate the rich history of the "English Church". The Christian and Pagan contradictions in it's symbiotic architecture was such a beautiful site to me. One of the more unusual grounds I have been blessed to walk...

Sometimes, less is more, and this church can harness its simplicity to create a holy and peaceful atmosphere.
