Danish War Museum

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

800-year-old ruins under the palace, the royal stables, and tapestries of 1,000 years of Danish history, one showing the queen with her dachshunds.

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

Viking swords and silver treasure, plus the Sun Chariot, the Egtved Girl and the Gundestrup Cauldron in the prehistory galleries.

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

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.
