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.

The great history echoes in the beautiful embellishments on the walls and ceilings. And the convent garden is also a treat.
