Museum of Copenhagen

Starting in 1925, the museum had a permanent exhibition in the attic of Copenhagen City Hall.

As the collections grew, the attic became too small and in 1956 the museum moved to the former building of the Royal Copenhagen Shooting Society (Det Kongelige Kjøbenhavnske Skydeselska) in Vesterbro.

[2] The buildings themselves dated to 1787 and were built based upon drawings by architect Johan Henrich Brandemann (1736–1803).

[4] In 2018, the museum announced a planned relocation to Stormgade in central Copenhagen.

It now operates in an affiliation with Thorvaldsen Museum and Kunsthallen Nikolaj as part of an association of cultural institutions known as Historie & Kunst.
