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.

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

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.

A very old…read morechurch St Peter's Church is the oldest building in the central area of Copenhagen. The first record of the Lutheran church for the German community was in about 1300 but it's possible that it was first parts were constructed as far back as the 12th century. Not much is known about what the church actually looked like back then but most of it was destroyed in a huge fire around 1380 and then rebuilt around 1400. The oldest part of the church probably dates to around that time. Over the centuries parts of the church were rebuilt and numerous additions completed. The famous architech, Hans Van Steenwinkel the Elder, did extensive renovations in 1585 and the extensive Sepulchral Chapels were built over several decades and not completed until around 1680 by Steenwinkel the Younger. The massive Copenhagen Fire of 1728 destroyed a lot of the church but once again it was rebuilt and the cool and looming Rococo spire was added around 1757. The church managed to survive sieges and wars and was extensively restored in the 1990s. Today the venerable church still dominates the area. Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to go inside the church but just walking around this ancient building and taking in this incredible part of history was immensely impressive and something not quickly forgotten.
