When Art Embraces and Connects Us

** (start at Hesten på Krinsen direction DKT)**

Join us for a different city walk with piquant and hilarious tales from the barely rosy but deeply fascinating Copenhagen.

Listen to the hilarious and folksy tales from a time when the king was autocratic, the Swedes were the hereditary enemy and Det Kgl. The theater was called the “Rottereden”.

Explore the Golden Age portraits and find the “Starling” in Copenhagen's most beautiful mosaic under Stærekassen.

Get the world-class drama about the ultra-poor girl who ended up as Denmark's most powerful woman - at once loved and hated.

Rejoice in Marie Grube, who turned the unfaithful Gyldenløve into a cuckold and outraged the whole of Denmark by her free lifestyle in search of love.

Get to know the secrets behind the Horseman statues and insight into Nyhavn's heyday and subsequent deroute, where brawls were daily life, Swedes were rolled and the girls walked the dogs, while the king hung out with the canal boys and got tatoos at Jack's.

A colorful city walk with detailed stories, fun facts and exciting perspectives.

What's included

90 min. guided tour with a whack for the skilling.

The tour is suitable for those who want a tourist vibe - without compromising on drama and quality and without just getting the “usual”.

Fruentimmerture

Jeg hedder Dorte og jeg er fruentimmeret, som skriver og udbyder byvandringer om Københavns historie, fordi jeg ikke kan lade være.

Københavns historie er mageløs, uden sidestykke og jeg elsker at fortælle den og efter en guidet tur med Fruentimmerture, vil København være…
