Located in the center of the city, it is a must to visit. Beautifully preserved. Free entrance to the cathedral, though you need to pay to visit the museum and the tower.

Kunsten is a living art museum allowing space for immersion, wonder and fascination. The museum houses a unique collection comprising over 4000 works of art, mostly post-1900, by Danish and foreign artists. The exhibition area consists of five galleries providing visitors with ample opportunity to experience the permanent collection as well as a number of special exhibitions. Kunsten also hosts a variety of events including lectures, film screenings, concerts, family workshops, guided tours, and other activities suitable for all age groups. The museum building, completed in 1972, is an attraction in its own right. Designed by the world-famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, assisted by Elissa Aalto and Jean-Jacques Baruel, it is the only museum building outside Finland designed by Aalto. The museum is built of striking white marble, a style that is continued inside with stunning marble flooring and copper lamps, also designed by Aalto.

I used to live in Aalborg in the dawn of time but I never got around to visit Kunsten. Now on a short holiday trip I did go there and actually wish I had been there before. The building by Aalto is a study in it self with many very nice details and the exhibition is really nice. The museum aims to put the art in context and to promote discussion e.g. by indicating "conversation zones" where you can discuss with you fellow art people. Nice cafe and sculpture park where there is also room for children.

Grundtvig Church is one of the most unique looking churches i've been to. It's grand expressionist exterior facade is matched by an equally stunning interior.

See sculptures created by sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen, whose work can be found across Europe. Long corridors allow for natural light and echo the creative ambiance. The Museum opened on September 18, 1848. It is Denmark’s oldest and also most extraordinary museum building. Open Tuesday-Sunday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.

Oldest public museum in Denmark: devoted to the neoclassicistic artist Bertel Thorvaldsen who donated his life’s works and collection to his native city, this museum from 1848 is the oldest museum in the world devoted to one artist and sublime in having different floors and ceilings to set off the marble statues or statues in plaster-of- paris.from outside it is a festive building with its friese showing Thorvaldsen’s homecoming in 1838.
7. The Black Diamond - Royal Danish Library

A wonderful library that blends old and new style into a perfect architectural creation. From the outside, it looks like a diamond, and supposedly, on sunny days, the building shines like a diamond on the water. I cannot confirm this because it has been raining constantly during my stay. :) - I definitely envy students studying in Copenhagen because this is a place where you can find peace. Also, on the ground floor there is a beautiful little cafe. I took an Americano which was one of the best I had the opportunity to taste it.

A visit to Det Gamle Apotek is a must if you are in Southern Denmark. It is particularly lovely (and busy) at Christmas time, but they sell Christmas decorations all year around.
