2024 Roskilde Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in September)

The old capital of Denmark - Roskilde

Roskilde What was once the capital of Denmark is now a cute little town, easily reached by train from Copenhagen. It’s a nice trip, perfect for families, solo travellers, friends or couples. The Viking museum doesn’t seem much online but it’s instead a very interesting experience. Kids can enjoy making their own boat, adults too 😊. If you arrive in time there are three guided tours, in three different sections of the museum. The first one will explain everything you need to know about the “Viking age”, the museum and boat building. The third is quite fun as well as you will be shown the Viking way of combat (there’s also a slot for families). The cathedral is quite massive from outside, and inside there are the burial of all kings and queens of Denmark. #eurotrip #passionpassport #foodie #summervacation #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #naturalwonders

Experience a magnificent church and an architectural masterpiece. 1000 Years of Danish history are gathered here under beautifully decorated vaults and in dark crypts. Here 39 kings and queens of Dnemark lie buried. Roskilde Cathedral is just 20 minutes away by train from Copenhagen central station.

The hotel is hidden away behind the city pedestrian shopping and bar street. very lively and warm reception, much needed in the snowy weather.

A journey through time and culture.

In Roskilde, Denmark, a city steeped in history, my visit was a journey through time and culture. The Viking Ship Museum, nestled by the harbor, offered a glimpse into the seafaring past with its remarkable 11th-century vessels and bustling boatyard. Walking through the city center, the imposing Gothic architecture of Roskilde Cathedral captivated me, housing the resting place of Danish monarchs across the ages. A short distance away, the Museum of Contemporary Art, housed within a regal mansion, provided a modern contrast to the city's rich heritage. Venturing westward, the expansive Land of Legends open-air museum transported me back to the eras of the Stone Age and Viking civilization, offering an immersive experience of ancient life. Roskilde, a city of contrasts and timelessness, left an indelible mark on my travels. #history #culture #architecture

UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The most important church in Denmark, the official royal burial church of the Danish monarchs. Beautiful, grand, bright and gloom all in a place. Eat in this small cafe called Conditoriet after! It was good! Discovered it while looking for somewhere not crowded. Use the Copenhagen card and do 3 attractions in one day to make it worthwhile! Make use of the Large coverage to go further!
