It's is mostly a historical museum and covers the time from the earliest relics of the Danes to modern times. The physical museum used to be a castle, and that explains why there are so many rooms, one after another. I recommend looking at the overall map and pick a floor and a place to start, based on what interests you the most. Then, allow yourself to get lost in terms of going from one room to another. There are visual and historical treasures throughout the museum, so it would be nearly impossible to NOT find things of interest. I loved seeing the old crowns, jewelry, and clothing, as well as Viking horns for drinking, old weapons, and the creative way things are presented. I was impressed by this museum because they have used modern museum techniques to display objects and explanations. For example, in one room, they had talking paintings to convey information, or a knight on a horse, which makes horse noises out of the blue. They also have some very creative temporary exhibits, which you should check out. When I was there, there were very interactive displays that were all about money and how wealth is distributed around the world. It was thought provoking, as well as fun. When you need a rest, there is also a cafeteria overlooking the inside of the museum. Face it, you are not going to see it all. There is too much and you won't have the time or stamina to "do it all." But that's OK. It's definitely worth it to buy a ticket ($22 USD) to spend two hours or so, as we did.

If you have transport go to Møns Klint and preferably when the weather is good. It is something you…read morehave not seen/experienced before. It is a solid 1,5 hour drive from Copenhagen and can be easily two hours if you don't know the way or you go slightly slow. The drive is nice and you pass a very nice bridge, almost by the end of the trip. There is a parking space when you arrive and I would recommend you having water with you when you start the hiking. There are more than one ways to go down but we took the stairs closest to the museum. Going down is easy but the walk at the beach and the hike up is a bit tougher. The rocky beach can be hard to walk on with slippers as the rocks move with every step you take and you can't be steady enough. My friend and I managed but I would suggest bringing your sneakers. When we reached the beach we walked to the next stairs which were around 2 km away. Going up is hard for your lungs but you can take breaks in between at the built up benches. The beach is not so pleasant to swim as you need to manage to get through all those rocks. However close to the second stairs there was a gap which made it easier to get through. I loved the views from up better than the experience walking at the rocky beach. It is just amazing! We didn't go into the museum but it is about the history of Denmarks birth and the fossils found in the cliff. If the day is good there is also a beach very close (maybe 15 mins drive) in a very cute little town called Klintholm Havn.

The museum is not big, but it's sufficient enough to explain you about the fossils that were found in the cliff, where they came from and how the cliffs were made and all the little bits of pieces of geology lesson.

It tells the story of​ how a flock of scientists found the first dinosaur (complete) bones in Greenland, and there's also a bit of TV interactive in​ the last room. ​All in all a great fun place to be.

I would highly recommend doing a tour if you have the time. I learned SO Much and this museum is unreal on what they're doing. Seeing the ships inside was great, and even the food at the cafe was tasty. Super easy to get to from Copenhagen (although the walk from the train was a little long and hilly if you have mobility issues). Really enjoyed this spot and really opened my eyes to Danish history- theyre also doing something so unique in making these boats. If you want to sail on the boats get tickets online in advance or get their early-they were sold out by the time we got there at about 11.

We arrived…read morewith our entrance tickets only to be told I could not bring in the seat cushion I have to use anytime I'll be sitting (due to a medical condition). We actually stopped by just for the beautiful cafe to enjoy an afternoon coffee. I was told I would have to leave it in the lobby to enter, which obviously wouldn't work for me for such an occasion. I was not aware of this rule, and the gentleman who'd scanned our passes clearly didn't wish to converse about its purpose...just a no period. After leaving I saw on their website about large bags not being allowed (the cushion isn't large, just a flat square) and that they'll decide which will be allowed inside. While I understand the need for this type of rule, I wish I'd been allowed to explain. My husband told him we were only visiting the cafe, and I tried to show him the cushion and wanted to explain, but was dismissed before I had the opportunity. Most places I've been to seem to accommodate for certain things like this, but unfortunately not here. A shame, I very much wanted to visit.

Others are wrapped as Science Centers, which as you expect, I'm more keen on. On our travels to Copenhagen, we had a day of free time, and with a kiddo, and snow coming down outside, our destination was... the Experimentarium. As a place that is designed for young minds, and to make learning entertaining, it's does it exactly that. There is a wonderful spiral staircase that takes you up to the various levels of exploration. Highlights include an interactive theater, where you get to move around in a story. Another is an oversized ball conveyer, which when you take your time to play with, gives you an opportunity to really delve into what it takes to move cargo around the world. Neat. On another floor, there is a wonderful food section, which talks about food, how it's made, farms, waste, and how we can do better. For the kiddos, there is a section that includes a bunch of activities with cameras that takes photos across the tasks, so you can bring the fun home. There are plenty of things for them to touch and play with across the entire center, including a Lego section, which makes sense, since Lego was founded in Denmark, and still headquartered. Worth it? Yup. Go again? Yup. Recommend? Yes.
