Designmuseum Denmark
The 1752-57-built Royal Frederik's Hospital became a hub of Danish design when the architects Ivar Bentsen and Kaare Klint removed and remodelled the rococo building in the 1920s for the Designmuseum Denmark. Just a short walk from the Royal Amalienborg Palace, this centrally located museum fast became a pioneer in exhibitions related to art and industrial design. Stop by to browse the collection, experiment and get creative in the design lab, and relax in the museum garden, Grønnegården. The on-site café, FORMAT, and its neighbouring, LILLE FORMAT, serve deliciously seasonal dishes alongside a rotation of home-baked pastries and cakes. If you're lucky, nab a ticket to the Dine & Design community dinner that takes place under the evening sky on every second Thursday throughout September, October, and November for a long-table supper of vegan and vegetarian takes on the Danish classics (forlorn hare, meatballs, and winter stew).
