The Museums in Copenhagen and Environs invites you inside several noteworthy and authentic Danish homes. The tour is well suited for those interested in homes and interior design, as well as those interested in history. It is also interesting for the younger members of the family, who get a chance to see how people lived in the days of their grandparents. Here are some suggestions for beautiful Danish homes to visit.
Stepping over the threshold of an unknown home oozing the atmosphere of times past, is usually a really good situation. The three dimensional experience of details and whole interiors while moving from room to room is a rare thing. A visit to a home with an original interior is an excellent media for storytelling, leaving an impression on everyone. You not only experience with your eyes – but with your whole body. Have a nice visit.

| | | Plush and tassels |  | | | | In 1890, the Danish merchant and factory owner Rudolph Christensen and his wife, had their 16-room winter residence refurnished according to the fashion. After their death, their two unmarried daughters lived in the home until 1963. | | |
| | A house from every district |  | | | | The Open-Air Museum is among the world’s oldest and largest building museums. Situated close to Copenhagen and close to public transportation makes it easy to visit. It seems almost unbelievable that you can experience so many types of landscapes and buildings so close to the Danish capital. | | |
| | To live in a mill |  | | | | Lille Mølle (The Little Mill) on the Christianshavn Vold (Copenhagen Ramparts). The home in the mill situated on Løvens Bastion (the Lion’s Bastion) was created in 1916, and donated to the National Museum of Denmark in 1974, by Mrs. Falch-Møller. | | |
| | The Sorensen family |  | | | | In 1915, a small family moved into a two-room apartment, and later the daughter and son took over the home without changing the interiors. The interiors were handed over to the Workers’ Museum (Arbejdermuseet) in Rømersgade street, which now vividly documents the living conditions of a working-class family in the 1930s. | | |
| | Antique luxury |  | | | | No expense was spared when the owner of the water-powered Brede Værk (Industrial Works of Brede) let the court interior designer, architect and inspector of the Royal Furniture Warehouse, J.C. Lillie, furnish his home in the most beautiful house in the factory plant. The house has been preserved, and now looks just as it did at its first house warming party more than 200 years ago. | | |
| | Literary bliss |  | | | | Literary bliss and birds chirping. Rungstedlund, the home of the author Karen Blixen, has officially been given the status of museum. The rooms and study are now accessible to the public, but the home is still looked after as in the days of the Baroness. While there, you should not forget to take a walk outside the house in the bird sanctuary with its tall trees, nesting boxes, and the named benches. | | |
| | A Golden Age sanctuary |  | | | | The Rahbek Museum (Rahbek memorial rooms) is situated in the oldest building in Frederiksberg: Bakkehuset in Rahbeks Allé. Today it appears to be a beautiful home, but it is more than that. | | |
