"Vor Frue Kirke - The Church of Our Lady This cathedral is Denmark's National cathedral and was designated as such in 1924. There has been a church on this spot in central Copenhagen going back nearly 900 years. However, the most recent version of the church (previous ones fell victims to fires, bombardment, and disasters) dates back predominantly to the early1800s."

Interesting and cavernous church. Worth a visit. The gold behind the jesus statue is very well lit. Organ was being tuned while I was there which I quite enjoyed. Lots of brass which is well polished, a lot of respect and gratitude for those responsible as this is not an easy task to keep so much brass gleaming!

We visited the Church of Our Lady with our family in December. It is not a heavily hyped or touristy church in Copenhagen, but we found it to be very peaceful and interesting. The church has a calm atmosphere and is not Gothic in style, which makes it feel quite different from many other churches. What stood out the most for us were the statues of the twelve apostles surrounding the interior, as well as the beautiful view of the altar. The simplicity and elegance of the design made it especially appealing. It’s not a very large church, but it’s definitely worth stopping by to admire the architecture and enjoy a quiet moment while exploring Copenhagen.

A truly inspiring place to visit in the heart of Copenhagen. The neoclassical architecture is stunning, and the interior is filled with light and serenity. The Christus statue by Bertel Thorvaldsen, along with the twelve apostles, is breathtaking and evokes deep reflection. Whether you are interested in history, art, or spirituality, this cathedral is a must-visit. I highly recommend taking your time inside, sitting quietly, and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere.

Absolutely beautiful — there’s nothing more to say than that. The architecture, atmosphere, and sense of peace make it well worth visiting and walking through. A truly stunning place.

This is a massive and impressive cathedral. It doesn't look unique or special from the outside but the interior was stunning! We also enjoyed organ music that they were playing quite skillfully there. What a great place!

This Is A Nice #Big Church In The Neighborhood........... The Place Is Easily Accessible And #Tourists Can Visit Here Without Any Struggle........... The Setup Inside Is Very Good And It Has Many #Sculptures Inside............ The Place Is Aesthetically #Decorated.......... It Would Have Been Nicer If Someone Was Assigned To The Place Who Could Shed A Light About The #Place To The Visitors.......... 🙂

The church is right next to the University of Copenhagen. It is a very old ancient church. We didn’t go inside. There was an event going on. So we walked around it.

Beautiful church. Better from the inside. ~30 minutes to casually explore the many statues and paintings. Free

Beautiful chapel. Open to the public. Bright, clean. Clever architecture mimics a Greek temple but biblical figures adorn all sides.

Free admission but less dramatic than the typical Cathedral, the Church of Our Lady Copenhagen is a pleasant place to visit for fans of religious sites, the marble stations of the cross far better depicting the suffering of Jesus than most and the large organ an impressive sight while the Danish paintings of former Cardinals and Bishops make the place feel somewhat heavy from the sides.

I don't know if there's much to say here - Admission to the church is free, and it's possible to get up to the top floor (go up the stairs to the museum and you can get in to the "third level" which gives you a better perspective. Otherwise, there's a statue of Jesus that you might recognize from some Mormon church advertisements, and an amazing ceiling - might be stucco? I can't tell, I'm no expert. But it's simplicity is breathtaking. Definitely worth popping in as you head by. Just be aware that while it says it's open at 8am - it's really not. Or at least, wasn't the day I was there. People were letting themselves in with keys, but it certainly wasn't open to the public until the afternoon when I happened to walk back by.
