Copenhagen Denmark
Location

Designmuseum Danmark is located at Bredgade 68, 1260 København K, Denmark. Situated in the heart of Copenhagen, it's close to several key tourist attractions. Nearby, you'll find Amalienborg Palace, the winter residence of the Danish Royal Family, just a short walk east. To the south is Nyhavn, the picturesque canal area with colorful buildings and numerous restaurants and cafes. A little further east is Kastellet, a well-preserved 17th-century star-shaped fortress offering scenic walks. To the west, you can easily reach Kongens Nytorv, a central square surrounded by historic buildings including the Royal Danish Theatre and Charlottenborg Palace (housing Kunsthal Charlottenborg). The Marble Church (Frederik's Church) with its impressive dome is also very close by. You can also walk to Rosenborg Castle, home to the Danish crown jewels, within about 15-20 minutes. The Little Mermaid statue is a bit further north but still accessible by a pleasant walk along the waterfront.
