H. C. Andersens Hus
After a massive renovation, this landmark museum reopened in 2021. It is dedicated to the famous fairy-tale author Hans Christian Andersen. The museum tells the story of his life through thousands of items related to the Danish author, from his vintage travel suitcases to his top hat, handwritten manuscripts, and poetic paper cuttings, as well as through highly interactive, audiovisual components. The museum is designed by the Japanese architect Kengo Kuma and is one of Denmark's biggest. There's a café, a labyrinth garden, and a cultural center for children in the basement. Tickets must be booked in advance.
