The collections of M/S Maritime Museum of Denmark tell the story of Denmark as one of the world's leading shipping nations. Follow the sloping bridges down to the old dry dock between Kronborg Castle and The Culture Yard to enter the underground museum. The exhibitions feature a fleet of merchant ships and personal stories linked to the museum's collections from the past four centuries. Interactive installations and games provide opportunities for playing and learning together with others. Experience the role of the captain, or sit behind the desk of the shipping executive conducting world trade in today's marketplace. Many exhibits are expressed using a set design and a film projected directly onto the architecture of the building.

    Small but interesting maritime museum with pretty much everything with English translation. The building is beautiful and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. It is worth visiting if you have time after Hamlets Castle.
  • By Søren Staun
    Great museum with some fun things, interesting details and floors that make you feel like you're at sea! Good for both small and big sailors! Also, get an anchor tattoo!
