My favourite museum is Moesgaard Museum. I love it! I love archaeology and history.

I recommend a visit to Hjerl Hede (western Jutland). It's a collection of about 50 houses, reconstructing the daily life in Denmark in the years 1500 to 1900. It's well worth a visit and you can easily spend an afternoon there. Just be sure to be there when the weather is good.

I'm quite a science nerd, so one of my favourites is steno museet in Århus. Some of their exhibitions are interactive. During the weekends the planetarium is also open where they give a visual tour of the night sky

The cafeteria at the Moesgaard Museum is quite good. Also, if you take a lovely walk through the woods you may come to the old mill, a part of the museum. There is a restaurant there, too, Restaurant Skovmøllen

When I'm in London I really enjoy going to the Natural History Museum.

Other museums to try: Tirpitz bunker museum (WW2) and Hjerl Hede open air museum (Denmark 200 years ago) . Being in Denmark, I think july is the best month for open air museums.

If you are interested in WWII history, I can recommend the Besættelsesmuseet (Occupation Museum) in Aarhus. It was recently renovated and extremely interesting. The museum does an excellent job presenting all the dilemmas experienced by different people in different situations, which I think the Danes have a knack for doing. The Besættelsesmuseet is relatively small and housed in the former police station that was commandeered by the Gestapo toward the end of the war. As a fellow American ex-pat in Denmark, I find the history of these monumental events like WWII in the areas that suffered through them to be fascinating.

I vote for Miranda and Frederiksborg Slot. In the summer, the garden alone beats Aros.

I love the Hirschsprung Collection in Stockholmsgade, in Copenhagen. It's a very small museum, but concentrates on art from around 1800-1900. They have awsome special exibits, that changes, about a certain artist. Right now it's Betha Wegmann. But they also have a wonderful main exibit with the work of the Skagen painters, Hammershøj, and the Golden Age painters in the 1800's.

You are lovely to watch and always have great content. It doesn't matter what day it is, if you are on time or late. Just happy to learn what, you are up to next. I love The Krøyer museum in Skagen, The British national museum, The Louvre in Paris, The ruins and museum of Karthago. The lost city of Pompeii in Italy. Greece is a great place for visiting historic museum and places. A grusom but historic and interesting visit to The river Kwai war museum and drivin on the "deathtrain" in Thailand.

I love museums where the museums comes to life, so my top museums are The old Town (Den gamle by) (Aarhus) - it is very special at Christmas time. Jarl Hede (Jütland) the Fünen village (Den fynske landsby) (Odense)

Another great brake from the "day". Thx

I absolutely agree with your list. Both Aros and MoMu are world class museums, and National Museum has an amazing collection.

I can recommend JohannesLarsen museum in Kerteminde (you will like it Miranda) and Fåborg Museum. Both on Fyn. And of course Skagens museum.

If you want a lot of museums at once, check out Edinburgh Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. When I was there I visited Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh national museum, surgeons hall’s museum, museum of childhood, the peoples story museum, national galleries, palace of holy rood house (my favorite), the scotch whiskey experience and in general the old town near Edinburgh castle. One of my favorite places in the world is Scotland. 🥰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Honestly, I watched the draw and was hopeing so much for a USA vs Denmark game, solely because I watch this channel and it would have been fun content :D And in regards to the video, I also recommend Hjerl Hede´, it's a nice open air museum.

If your ever in Jutland, see Strandingsmuseet, and also visit Frihedsmuseet in Copenhagen

A small little museum on the island of Fur was fascinating. And if you’re out that way, you need to visit the museum called Stenaldercenter Ertebølle.

Frederiksborg slot is also my favor, and the chapel is just fantastic.

Love it..

I absolutely love Moesgaard. I live quite close by, so I have a yearly subscribtion, so I can come as often as I like. So I usually select a small part of the collection, and the geeks out :) Outside of Denmark, I would recommend Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. Rijksmuseum has a lot of Rembrandt and Vermeer and the Van Gogh Museum - strangely enough - has a lot of Van Gogh :)

I never knew, how much I enjoy museums, until they were all closed down for the virus. I've yet to see the H.C. Andersen museum, but some of my favorite museums are covered by your list. I'm surprised, you don't give Christiansborg even an honorable mention, though. It's spectacular, and includes a.o. the stables and theatre. Oh! And the tapestries! Of other museums in Denmark, I'd include the Tirpitz near Blåvand - and I quite like the little museum at Jægerspris Slot. The gardens are quite lovely. Abroad, the Acropolis Museum in Athens is amazing. Love your podcast - it's always interesting and engaging.

Kunsten in Aalborg, Gråbrødrekloster museum under the street in Aalborg, Faaborg museum on Fyn, Museum Jorn in Silkeborg. The Topographie des Terrors in Berlin is a great place, so is The Jüdisches Museum and The Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin. If you're interested in architecture and design I highly recommend The Bauhaus Archiv - also in Berlin. Some danish architects and designers have studied at Bauhaus too.

The Heritage/Winter Palace of Sankt Peterbourg, simply is fantastic. (Sadly Russia is probably of limit for sometime to come), and Potsdam, just outside Berlin is really worth a visit. There are toons of nice places in Europe. In Denmark, Thyboron there are a small small (private collector) amber museum, that is really cool and there of cause the memoral museum of the biggest sea battle of the history of warfare. WW1, the battle at Jutland. That battle is special to me, since I had the honor of meeting a almost100 years old man telling me about how, He and his father stood in the dunes watching the shops being blown up in the night sky. It was really a honor to me, and luck to have him telling that, before he died. He was a fantastic story teller.

Hi - you are a fantastic family. Have been watching your videos for awhile now. I admire you have been around the World. Have you ever been to my part of Denmark - which is Greenland? I have been living in Denmark since 2006 - but must admit I miss Greenland my home country. You should take a trip to Greenland and see the beauty of it. There are 3 clima-zones there. Sub-arctic, arctic and high-arctic. You will love it I would bet

My top museum for a long time was Dvblinia in Dublin, Ireland, which was also very immersive and interesting. Imagine boarding a Viking ship in relative darkness and then having splashes (i.e. drops) of water hit your face! And an exhibition illustrating the many languages spoken in Dublin in the Viking era had loudspeakers alternating between sentences in 20-30 languages! Another museum worth visiting although it’s quite remote (if you ever get to Svendborg again) is the Søfartsmuseum in Marstal, in the isle of Ærø, which is enormous when you consider it’s in Marstal, a town with a little over 2,000 people - and of course, many tourists in the summer.

Regarding transportation history, i would recomend "Jernbanemuseet" (The Danish Railway museum) in Odense, and "Skjoldnæsholm Sporvejsmuseum" (Tram museum) on Zeeland. And thanks for your videos!

Please do visit "Skagens Museum", with a collection of very famous Danish artists like Krøyer and Ancher, who spent much time painting on the top of Jutland, with its special light. And Hirschsprungs Samling, in a building to the side, and in the Park of Statens Museum for Kunst! And also the Ship Museum in Roskilde, with the famous 5 Viking Ships, as the former main Viking State in the North! Several Danish Kings also became Kings of England!

If interested in local history and living, I recommend Den Gamle By i Århus (the old village), Frilandsmuseet (country houses up to 300 yr) and Klunkelejligheden in Copenhagen that is unchanged for many, many years. They are all fascinating if you love to learn old lifestyle i Denmark.

My favorite museum is also Frederiksborg Castle. We come there every summer. My girlfriend and I will soon go on a tour of Christiansborg Castle " folketinget " and afterwards see if we can have lunch in the tower's restaurant. That could be really nice. You guys should try to take the train from Copenhagen to Stockholm for a weekend. Rent a hotel room in the old town and go and see the Vasa Museum which is nearby. It takes about 5 hours by express train to Stockholm. It is also a beautiful city.

Some great museums on your list. I was also blown away by Frederiksborg Slot the first time I visited it, and I want to go there again some time. I'm curious about what you think about Den Gamle By in Aarhus? That's my personal no. 1 and I go there at least once a year.

I really liked the Arken Museum of Modern Art on the outskirts of Copenhagen

I loved The Smithsonian when I was in D.C. It was nice how everything was there, but it was still separated in an nice way that made sense. I only saw like a third while I was there, so I need to go back and see more. :-) The Louvre in Paris is also a must see. In regards to DK I like Glyptoteket which you guys have already mentioned.

My favourite is Den Gamle By in Aarhus. You need 3 days to see and taste it all. Have you visited it?

Right next to Aros there is Den Gamle By (the Old City) both Aarhus and Odense is just brilliant. Danmarks Legetøjsmuseum (Danish Toymuseum). Favorite out side, I would say London Science Museum, The Natural History Museum and the Imperial War Museum Not so much a musuem but an exhibition, Miniture Wunderland, Gernmany Hamborg.

My grandfather took me to countless museums in Denmark in my childhood. Some were sooo boring (as a child) like the Postmuseum (The mail museum) and the Skattemuseum (which he himself headed) but some that you maybe have missed and which are awesome, are the Tøjhusmuseet (a museum of the weaponry that Denmark has used), and the Friluftmuseum, where you can see historical building from throughout Danish history. Also The Danish Technical Museum is absolutely awesome. They facilitate a yearly train trip by steam train from Copenhagen to Helsingør around christmas. And if you haven't yet, you have to visit Kronborg in Helsingør and maybe see a Hamlet play in the courtyard. The Royal Shakespeare Company has done plays there. Anywho, have a great spring and summer my favourite American-Danish family :)

I am shamelessly going to plug my neighbor museum x) The Thyborøn Kystmuseum is absolutely amazing. It's more of an interactive museum than a historical one, but it just brings all of these aspects of costal life into one place ❤ And it is right next to Jyllandsakvariet, which is also really nice.

Best museum in Europe has to be Auschwitz koncentration camp. It's located near Krakow in Poland. Krakow is a fantastic city, so plan for at least 3-4 days. 1 hole day at Auschwitz. Book with a fully guided tour. This blows your mind. This visit will be in your body for days/weeks......and Krakow is faaaantastic.

Definitely glyptoteket in Copenhagen, but also sagnlandet lejre, even though that isn't really a museum, as much as a place for experimental archeology...really amazing though. I would really love to visit the British museum in london.

I’m disappointed that Rosenborg Castle isn’t here. I just think it’s the most amazing museum we have, it’s a little smaller than most others, but I just think it’s packed full of stuff

My favorites in Denmark are by far Moesgaard and the National.. Other than that, I'll take Aalborg Zoo any day! I've learned to think of (some) Zoo's as museums. Outside Denmark, besides the obvious ones in London, Paris and Berlin, would be the Brahms museum in Hamburg and House of Music in Vienna. But I guess those are for the history buff/ classical music fan

The old city in Århus.(den gamle by) i LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. Also One great museum in Europe is Miniatur Wunderland in Hamborg. You can use hours in there. But remember to check the website for tickets. The museum is almost always fully booked and you then will have to wait up to 5 hours to get in. 😊 By the way. Love your channel. Keep up the good work.

I highly recommend Sir John Soane's Museum in London

Museum Silkeborg with Tollundmanden, Gammel Estrup Herregårdsmuseum east of Randers, Hjerl Hede in West Jutland and Den Gamle By in Aarhus.

I have just been to Rebildcentret in Tingbæk Kalkminer (Lime stone mines). 3-4 different museums in one place. Paintings from the local art community in the late 1800. The Cold War as seen from the east as well as the west. Prototypes of sculptures done by different artists - the originals being in public places all over Denmark. And the mine itself with its own history (and bats).

I love that you love the ARoS the most. Me too. And Moesgaard. And I feel embarresed to admit, that I have never been to the National Museum of Denmark. I must. Promise. One small little museum you should check out is the Flaskeskibssamling in Ærøskøbing. Tiny but adorrable.

You may see several of his statues in Cph. and Helsingør, but if you go to Dronningmølle, you may visit Rudolf Tegners Museum and Park. I do like his statue for his mothers grave, which was also bought by J.C. Jacobsen, from Carlsberg, for his mothers grave. I will try to find the original statue in the graveyard in Helsingør/Elsinore at one time.

There is a lack of maritime museums in Denmark, but they have one in Helsingør "M/S Søfart" - they have a nice cafe as well. There is a surprisingly good maritime museum on the small island of Ærø - its an old fashioned museum with a million objects on display - but if thats your thing, they got you covered - its called Marstal Søfartsmusem.

Have you visited the Danish Railway Museum? It’s located right next to Odense station. I can really recommend it. :)

You should go to Guédelon in Burgundy, France. And then go to Dover Castle in Kent, UK.

20 sec in and the search for focus point made me burst out laughing 😂

You should visit the National War Museum of Denmark (a.k.a. Tøjhusmuseet). It has an amazing collection of medieval armor.

I love 2 museums in Aalborg 1. Vikingemuseet Lindholm Høje bc it's an inside/outside museum 2. Gråbrødrekloster Museet bc it's underground! Both delve into Danish history and there are so many relics, that you can feel it, too Outside of Denmark? Have to say, Napoli!! 1. Napoli Subterraneo, absolutely fascinating, layers upon layers of city!! 2. Isola la Gaiola, underwater park, scuba diving Roman ruins 3. Ercolanium, stunning understanding of Vesuv 79 AD and can I mention the food!! 🥰 hello from Hundested 🌸 🌱

My nr 1 is Frederiksborg castle, nr 2 Glyptoteket. Seing those old sculptures, the impressionistic art in the tower - but as well the danish collection of art on the first floor is great. Nr 3 Davids samling, probably Europes best museum for Islamic art (the furniture collection also is one of the best in Denmark) By art small gems that not that many tourist visit, Liechtenstein summer palace (one of the worlds best art museums) and the dreamy Liechtenstein Winter Palace (both only open every 2nd friday with a tourguide), In London Wallace collection and in New York City Frick collection (ok later not that unknown)

Normandy. see all the museums for D-day (overlord) the American graveyard at Omaha beach and on same day see the German graveyard. and when in Bayeux see the Musée de la Tapisserie de Bayeux, then the Normans invaded England, and then travel to see Mont Saint-Michel. Remember to go in the fall, when they make Calvados. And the food is so great.... Also if you drive from Denmark. remember to see Mémorial de Thiepval from WW1.

If or when you visit stockholm, don´t forget to take the subway (tunebanan). It is considered as the longest art exhibition. And fotografiska museet.

Have you been to Experimentarium? One of my favorite places to go

"Den Gamle by" in Aarhus, is a great place to visit.

Try the tirpitz museum in Blåvand

Trelleborg, Savnlandet and Roskilde Viking museeum are also great places! And Frilands Musseet. All with historical insight. Trelleborg is best during the Viking marked days. But the earthen mounts is quite impressive considering the age.

My favorit is statens museum, outside Denmark is tate in London and Vancouver art museum.

Perhaps it would be interesting for you to visit Knud Rasmussens Hus in Hundested a learn a bit of Danish Artic history. It is quite small but then you can enjoy a good meal at Halsnæs Bryghus. I can recommend Sortsild. Afterwards it is time for an ice cream from Vaffelhjørnet, the best ishus in Halsnæs. If you visit do yourself the favor to walk there from the habour through Skansen, an old fortification and back.

For the real HC Andersen experience, you should visit his actual childhood home. Hardly anybody goes there - I think people confuse it with the modern centre. If you come back for the fall, hit me up for details. I actually did the English translations of all the tourist information you can look up with QR codes along the Odense Å river.

Try Thorvaldsens Museum in CPH

What are your thoughts on Louisiana? Maybe I'm biased, but that's easily one of the top 5 in Denmark

What about Christiansborg - the stables, the kitchens, the wall hangings and the changing exhibitios - and Amalienborg, the reconstruction of the offices of the former kings and queens Nd the changing exhibitions there?

As you appriciate history you should visit Den Fynske Landsby, Roskilde Domkirke, Hedeland ved Roskilde, Valdemar Slot and Møns Klint. Not museums all of them but worth a visit 😀

Outside dk I love: the Nobel peace center in Oslo and if you are in Oslo Go to national Gallery too.

Faaborg museum on Funen and Jens Søndergaard Museet in Ferring on the edge of the North Sea.

Unfortunately the printing paper for the Japanese photo booth has been taken out of production so the machine has been turned off. I can't remember if you guys have visited the Ordrupgaard museum or Thorvaldsens Collection?

My favorite is the frilandsmuseum. The international favorite would be the national museum in Cairo. That is so fantastic. But I have a close international second : it's Bletchley Park in the UK. This is where crypto analysis was industrialized. Station X. If you have any kind of interest in the history of WWII, you must make a pilgrimage to Bletchley.

I’m wondering … you’ve been to Århus several times, but have you been to Den Gamle By? I’d love to show you around there :)

I recommend sygeplejerske museum kolding it's not very big but it's interesting

have u gone to visit Arken? cant remember if u have shown us roskilde domkirke? and vikingeskibs museumet? have u gone to the Workers museum?? the amalienborg museum is really nice. i can recomend getting tours at the royal theater (the new theater if ur able) and Christiansborg. why? why not! im a history and theater lover. its so interresting to see behind the sceens

Have you gotten to visit 'Frilands muesset' yet?

Road bridges do not trigger my fear of heights, maybe because I do not drive. But the rainbow on top of Aros does. I am not going up there. The main reason that I am certainly going to visit Århus again is Den Gamle By. Have you been to Davids Samling? It is similar to the New Carlsberg Glyptotek in that it started as the collection of one rich man. It reflects Mr. David's interests, which were very varied. One of these was Islamic art, and this is what the museum has concentrated on. This is where the collection is growing. There is also European renaissance paintings and mechanical furniture, e.g. cabinets that unfold to tables. Admisson is free. If you like single artist museums, I recommend C.F.Willumsens Museum at Frederikssund. Being from Hundested, I am fond of Knud Rasmussens Hus. This was the home of the great explorer. It is quite small. I have not been there for ages, so I do not know if they have installed any of the modern interactive stuff. Favorite museums outside Denmark: Tyrell Museum of Paleontology, Drumheller, Alberta British Museum, London Victoria and Albert Museum, London Museum of Natural History, London MNAC, Barcelona When it comes to historical paintings, many of the paintings you see in Danish history books are at Frederiksborg Slot. For example Den Grundlovgivende Rigsforsamling by Constantin Hansen.

have you visited the women's museum in Aarhus. Women's Museum in Denmark and its collection The Women's Museum in Denmark (Kvindemuseet i Danmark) is a history museum in Aarhus that is housed in the former city hall and police station of the city. The museum is dedicated to the cultural history of women in Denmark. The musuem is housed in the former Aarhus City Hall from 1857.

My best museum overall is Stasi Prison Berlin-Hohenschönhausen in Berlin.

Just to tell you. Den Gamle By have made something new. They have made an Easter telling - just like there Christmas telling. And they got "homebrewed" beer they brew in open casks like in the old days. Oh they have brewed for 22 years now. But the Easter telling are new. It was there last year but then they had to close it down because of Corona ;-(

Seriously! Nothing from Aalborg??? You must definitely do a vol 2 "Top 5 Danish Museums!" and visit some museums in Aalborg and the rest of North Jutland. Here are some suggestions in random order: 1: Viking Museum Lindholm Høje 2: Art Museum of Modern Art Aalborg 3: Utzon Center 4: Springeren - Maritime Experience Center 5: Aalborg Defense and Garrison Museum 6: Gråbrøderkloster Museum 7: Aalborg Historical Museum

I don't know if it's a great museum, as I haven't been there for decades. But as a child, when visiting my grandmother in Aarhus on summer vacation, we always took a trip to the naturhistorisk museum in Aarhus. But I can see it has a score of 4,4 out of 5,and Aros has a score of 4,5 on Google. AFAI remember, you guys haven't been in that museum. But it might be worth a visit on your next trip to the city. Naturhistorisk museum translates to natural history museum.

You should try Høriis Slot on Mors very close to Nykøbing. They have arranged the exhibits like a murder investigation and it's a really fun way to go through the place, be sure to bring Maya and Villads as i think they'll love it. You even get a diploma for solving it that my hten 26 y.o. ex gf was very happy about :)

Since you mentioned the World Cup I'm curious to hear who you will root for if Denmark and the US have to play against each other in the knockout phase. Or maybe it's a win/win or a lose/lose situation if that happens? :)

I myself would defently replace Aros with Den Gamle By. But that's me.

did you learn about DK in school when did you get interested in DK ????

Visit Ricardo Brennand Museum in Recife Brasil

I would not know what to choose. But I agree that Moesgaard should be in the top 5. And if you ask my 2 year old, Frilandsmuseet,, and then I rather like science over modern art, so experimentariet... But I don't know if you consider that more of a playground than a museum. If you ever visit Silkeborg, have a visit at the local museum, there are more bog-men to be seen. And go visit AQUA... It's not exactly Den Blå Planet, but still worth a visit. If you're into doll house stuff, try find "rakkerhuset" near Vinderup... Don't even know if it still exist... It may not be the best location if you don't understand Danish so well. But they did have a lecture of the lowest classes of the Danish society back in the day... And a bunch of hand made doll houses.

1864 in Dybbøl (Sønderborg)

Jorn museum i silkeborg..

That glass isent the best glass at the moment ☺

go to "Hvidstenkro"

Gammel Estrup...Fordi Eske Brok var min grand-grand-grand-grand fader..he..he

The English will always assume they win :) I guess at some point the will be right :D

Hjerl Hede

The english soccer fans assumes - EVERY SINGLE TIME - England is qualified, that they win. Regardless of how it goes in the finals. 😂 _He, who does not learn from history, is compelled to repeat it._

Jeg går ikke selv meget på museum, men et besøg på Tirpitz museet ved Blaavand var en overraskende god oplevelse.

Har I prøvet Frilands Museum ved Lyngby Sjælland / Den Gamle by i Århus Jylland / Tøjhus Museum København & Friheds Museum København (fortællinger om 2 Verdenskrig i Danmark?
