We had a wonderful experience in the Hans Christian exhibition. Enacting the stories we grew up hearing with puppets in the immersive art installation was a very creative idea! Thank you, Carlos for receiving us very well in the store. It's very exiting to see another Brazilian brother and to be very welcomed. I'd like to suggest putting lockers at the entrance. It's something we've seen in other museums and it was really helpful to explore more freely the exhibitions. Hopefully when we visit again the exhibition will be even bigger! Cheers!

Overall enjoyed this experience aimed at children, but enough back story for adults. Over in about half an hour. It was very dark inside even with the interactions lit up. At one point there was a glass door to push (not sure why?), and down the dark corridor the toilet was situated. Different languages were available on the story boards.

I was intrigued by this experience and had some time to spare. It was included in the Copenhagen Card which was convenient. The attraction is a walkthrough where you will hear stories from Hans Andersen books like Little Mermaid or Thumbelina. They made a nice interactive display that reminded me of Efteling in Netherlands. Very cute and magical. The only downside was that the experience was quite short because I wanted to see more. I would say it’s a must do for kids and older adults like me that are child at heart.

Well, I might not be the right person to rate, cause I love him so much and everything related to him makes me excited 😁. The innovation in the museum was great and the staff were so nice and kind. It’s worth going there 💪

Located in the same building right next to the Ripley’s Believe-it-or-Not Museum, this quaint little exhibit takes you through the life and some famous stories of the author Hans Christian Andersen. As a lover of the fairytales myself this was so charming and I thought the exhibit was thoughtfully designed and carefully planned out. Creative touches add a unique vibe to this kind of exhibit and I found the time passed very quickly. It was fun for us as a group of adults but I imagine kids would really enjoy it as well- particularly if they like the fairytales!

Please do go if you are a HCA fan, even better if you have kids as there is a section where you can stop by and read the stories or have them enacted live. Absolutely went back to being a kid in there. Ripley's Believe or Not! section was also good, quite a few interesting facts such as the tallest human in the world, lizard man and various art pieces such as one made out of toast. Yes, you read that right, toast as in bread.

Pretty cool! Lots of creepy statues that this town seems to love. You learn a lot of history and it is in Danish, English, and German. Lots of cool things to interact with. Free with the Copenhagen card! It's worth a visit. Right near Tivoli gardens as well.

A quaint little house, which takes you back in time. Very informative, but not really interactive. The house itself is tiny, it's hard to believe 3 families lived here. I'd definitely recommend a visit if you're in the area but it's easy to get confused and end up going to the actual museum by mistake...yup that's what we did.
