Denmark competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, from 13 to 29 August 2004.

Denmark has qualified a spot in men's individual archery.

[1][2] Joachim Olsen originally claimed a bronze medal in men's shot put.

On 5 December 2012, the International Olympic Committee and the IAAF stripped off Ukrainian shot putter Yuriy Bilonoh's gold medal after drug re-testings of his samples were discovered positive.

Following the announcement of Bilonoh's disqualification, Olsen's medal was upgraded to a silver.
