Natural History Museum Denmark

Natural History Museum Denmark is the Danish national museum of natural history. The museum is beautifully located in the corner of the Botanical Garden near Nørreport Station in the heart of Copenhagen. The museum is responsible for the management of the national natural history collections as well as the associated research and public outreach. The collections hold 14 million objects collected over 400 years, including skins, skeletons, insects on needles, herbarium plants, fossils, minerals and meteorites. In addition to this is also the living collections in the Botanical Garden, which include approx. 9,000 different plant species, such as orchid, cactus, carnivorous plants and exotic tree species. In just a few years, we will be celebrating the opening of the new museum building that brings together the whole of Natural History Museum Denmark under one roof in the Botanical Garden. The public can choose between a pleasant walk in the gardens, a visit to the beautiful Victorian Palm House or a voyage of discovery into the large new museum building.
