National Museum of Denmark

Fourteen thousand years of the city's history from the Ice Age on, with Danish contemporary art made for the building, and free entry under 18.

Room after room of statues in colors borrowed from the ruins of Pompeii, and free for anyone under 18.

The buffet is useful with kids because they can take tiny amounts of pasta, salads and vegetables until something works.

Samurai swords, tanks and decorated cannons in Christian IV's old arsenal, with free entry for under-18s.

Strange, rare and hard-to-believe objects on Rådhuspladsen, run alongside the Guinness museum, a Wonder Maze and a walk through H.C. Andersen's fairy tales.

A thousand years of Danish buildings, from the Viking Age on, told with films, models and room-sized installations you step into.
