Church of Our Saviour (Vor Frelsers Kirke)
Bästa tid att besöka
Late afternoon during golden hour for softer light and fewer tour groups. Spring to early autumn gives the clearest weather for the open-air sections.
Budgettips
Small fee to climb the tower, usually paid on site; the church interior is often free to enter outside service times, so plan accordingly.

Snabba fakta: Clinging to the outside of the tower is a dramatic corkscrew staircase that lets you climb around the spire, ending at a gilded globe crowned by a small statue that frames unforgettable panoramic city views. Visitors often mention the surprising sensation of climbing exposed steps in open air, then stepping back inside to a hushed, richly decorated nave where light pools on ornate woodwork.
Höjdpunkter: An exposed corkscrew staircase wraps around the 90 meter spire in a climb of roughly 400 steps, so you end up walking outdoors with wind in your face and gulls shrieking overhead. At the top a narrow platform squeezes beneath a gilded globe, where the canals and copper roofs spread out like a miniature model and the city sounds fall away to a distant hum.
Insidertips
- Wear closed, grippy shoes and avoid large backpacks because the staircase is narrow and steep.
- Arrive at opening or late afternoon to minimize queues for the tower climb.
- Take exterior photos of the spire from the Christianshavn quay, and shoot city panoramas from the top platform.
- Skip the final exposed section if you are uncomfortable with heights or strong winds.
