Thorvaldsens Museum

  Thorvaldsens Museum sits prominently at 9, Thorvaldsens Plads in the heart of Copenhagen, showcasing the works of the renowned Danish sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen. Opened in 1848, this museum is the first of its kind dedicated to a single artist in Denmark, celebrating Thorvaldsen's neoclassical masterpieces. The museum's architecture is notable, featuring a striking courtyard surrounded by a collection of detailed sculptures and reliefs that transport visitors back to the early 19th century. From mid-April to late September, the museum often hosts special exhibitions, allowing guests a chance to explore both permanent and temporary displays of art and history. Visitors can stroll through the various galleries and admire over 600 works, including classical sculptures, paintings, and sketches that reflect Thorvaldsen’s artistic legacy.
