Large marble Baroque church which stood unfinished from 1770 to 1874. It was finally finished in 1894.

This is one of my favorite churches in Copenhagen. Somehow this big round church is coming across as very soothing and calm, even when there is a lot of tourists in it. It is free and open most of the day. Very beautiful inside.

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.

Location: Located in Chirstianshavn, which is easily accessible and can lead on nicely to Freetown Christiana or a Canal Tour. Price: Free with the Copenhagen Card - If you're planning on doing lots of tourist attractions or using public transport, this is a fantastic purchase from 54Euro+. Otherwise, this is 40DK per adult. Definitely a must-do activity, the views are amazing and better than those as Rundetaarn. This attraction will test your physical fitness as you climb 400-450 steps to the very top - doesn't sound like much, but when you realise that the nice stairs at the entrance turn into steep wooden steps that decrease in size and wrap around the slightly humid and stuffy tower, then you realise how big 400 actually is. There are several points to stop as you walk up the tower, but be mindful that the large bells ring hourly, and you could be right next to them. The last few steps are akin to a ladder with a smaller door to exit from. Once out, you can walk around and view the scenery or you can continue to walk up the copper outdoor steps to the peak. If you're slightly larger or physically unfit, I would think twice about this attraction, especially in hotter weather as the tower itself is very humid. There is no elevator and once you're up, you have to come down.

The royal burial church of Denmark and a UNESCO world heritage site. Experience a magnificent church and an architectural masterpiece. 1000 Years of Danish history are gathered here under beautifully decorated vaults and in dark crypts. Here 39 kings and queens of Dnemark lie buried. Roskilde Cathedral is just 20 minutes away by train from Copenhagen central station.

A beautiful town to visit and the Cathedral is absolutely dripping in history as it is the resting place of nearly all of Denmark's monarchs. It's a lovely Cathedral - very old but with a lovely atmosphere. Check out the clock when it chimes! Well worth getting on the train and making the visit. Very much struck by the groups of children from 2 1/2 to primary and secondary school children doing tours of the Cathedral learning about their history. Impressive! The screen behind the alter is simply stunning while the Pipe Organ and Pulpit has the date 1609 on the beautiful decorative work on the steps leading up. The Cathedral is absolutely flooded with light which takes away any semblance of a mausoleum. Well worth taking the train to visit.

This 900-year old round-church is unique and so beautiful - and its history is really mysterious! Apparently, there are several different theories about why it was built and what it was used for - and there is a nice exhibition (in the tower under the ceiling) there explains the different theories - I like the story about the protection/ defence function and that the Knight Templars had something to do with the specific location :) A most see when at Bornholm!
