What To Expect

Memorial Anchor

Nyhavn was initially a busy port. The canal was filled with ships and lined with pubs for sailors and ladies of pleasure to enjoy. King Christian V established the area as a gateway to the inner city, and at that time, the canal stretched all the way up to Kongens Nytorv.

Our Saviour's Church

Church of Our Saviour (Vor Frelsers Kirke) is a baroque church, most famous for its helix spire with an external winding staircase that can be climbed to the top, offering extensive views over central Copenhagen. It is also noted for its carillon, which is the largest in northern Europe and plays melodies every hour from 8 am to midnight. Christianshavn was intended to be an independent merchant's town, so a church was needed.

Christiania

Christiania was "stolen" from a military area in 1971 and has been a source of controversy since. As the military moved out of the existing buildings, homeless hippies moved right in. Initially, the takeover was not necessarily organised; however, some claim that the "takeover" came about as a protest against the Danish government, as Copenhagen lacked affordable housing at the time. We end the tour outside the entrance to Christiania as we are not allowed to guide inside. Christiania have their guides.
