Julevandring i København

An atmospheric walking tour of central Copenhagen in November. Hear about the history of Christmas traditions and why they are called “Christmas games”.

In the Latin Quarter of the medieval city, we look at houses for rich and poor while discovering the area’s secret “shortcuts”, best known to locals. Hear about the Lucia tradition too, and learn more about figures such as N.F.S. Grundtvig and Peter Faber.

And what was the story behind Solvognen’s fake Father Christmases in Magasin in 1974?

Sikken Voldsom Trængsel og Alarm!

The tour starts on Rådhuspladsen by Lurblæserne, in front of Hotel Scandic Palace.

The tour ends by Nyhavn, Kongens Nytorv Metro station.
