One of the world's most loved art museums, in a series of low buildings set in a sculpture park on the coast north of Copenhagen, looking across the sea to Sweden. The collection includes Giacometti, Picasso, Warhol and Yayoi Kusama's mirror room, plus excellent changing exhibitions.


The café terrace overlooks the Øresund. It's closed on Mondays. Take the train to Humlebæk, then walk 10 minutes. Combine it with Kronborg Castle further up the coast.
