Copenhagen: Amalienborg Palace Museum Entry Ticket

In the middle of Copenhagen is the Amalienborg Museum, which is part of Christian VIII’s Palace. This is one of the four palaces, that Amalienborg consists of. You can see the special exhibition ‘Frederik X: King of Tomorrow’ at the museum until September 8th, 2024.

At The Amalienborg Museum, you get right to the heart of the monarchy. Go on a journey through time spanning the last 150 years of history and get to know the individuals behind the Danish monarchy. Explore the rooms that the Royal Family inhabited, which are preserved as though their occupants had just left. The rooms and personal belongings tell a unique family history – and an important part of Danish history.

The Fabergé Chamber
In the Fabergé Chamber, you can see hand-crafted Russian jewelry from 1860–1917 with a focus on the close ties between the Danish and the Russian monarchy. The Fabergé coronation brooch was created for the coronation of Tsar Nicholas II.

Christian X and Queen Alexandrine’s dining room
Visit the dining room, which appears almost exactly as it did when Christian X and Queen Alexandrine lived in the palace from 1899 until their deaths in 1947 and 1952, respectively.

Christian X’s study
Visit Christian X’s study, which has been preserved as though he had just left it. The room appears exactly as it did during the King’s own time in the palace, from 1899 to his death in 1947. The dark, heavy furnishings and dark walls are typical of a gentleman’s study around 1900. It is clear to see that the room belonged to an officer.

Queen Louise’s private salon
Queen Louise’s private salon from around 1895 reflects the modern interior decoration of the time. The paintings in the room and the framed photographs on the tables are testimony to her rich family life with close ties throughout Europe.

The Gala Hall
With a ceiling height of 8 meters, lavish gilding, and a view of the palace square, the Gala Hall ranks among the most impressive rooms in Denmark. In 1794, the Royal Family commissioned artist Nicolai Abildgaard to design the interior. The renowned sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen created the sculptures.
