Amy MalespinNovember 7, 2014Climb to the top even if you're afraid of heights! It's totally worth the amazing views. Entry is included with the Copenhagen card so just do it.
CatMay 19, 2015Pay 40kr to climb the tower, some 398 steps about 90m to see and exclusive panoramic view of this rather low rise city. Good decent workout, and benches along the way to sit and rest if needed.
Ea HansenNovember 14, 2017This beautiful church can be viewed from our balcony - and for a small fee you can access it and walk all the way up in the tower to get the most amazing view of Copenhagen. You won't regret it!Upvoted Mar 2- AnissaOctober 6, 2015The view is 10x better than the round tower! (unobstructed views!) Climb to the very top and catch the sunset!
QAugust 8, 2019Just be a bit patient, long queue will shade away in no time. Online tickets doesn’t help. A must visit attraction in Copenhagen.
Jakub SMay 17, 2018Marvellous panoramic view, no high railings to hinder taking a great photo, last 150 steps are outside the tower! Watch out for the ringing bells :)
FossyNovember 2, 2014Great views! It's not as intimidating as it sounds. Some parts are narrow but overall really safe and enjoyable. Also great for the kids and older people.
Blessan MathewAugust 10, 2017The top of the tower gives a great view of Copenhagen. Climbing to the top via the narrow stairwell itself was pretty fun.
- Stepa MitakiSeptember 1, 2013Best experience in Copenhagen. Quite scary and you'll be awarded with an amazing view of the whole city. Entrance is 40DKK and it's worth every penny. Oh, and you can pay with a card.
ChristinaMarch 30, 2017Beautiful church with beautiful views. Stay safe when climbing up the spiral staircase to the top!
- Cyrielle LouiseMay 10, 2016Some 400 steps to clim to the top. The end in the spiral staircase outside it's not as scary as it sounds. Wonderful view on Copenhagen ❤
Nur Öksüz AydınJune 2, 2017I'm in love with the architecture of its tower, also there was a great organ concert in the afternoon.- Steven AndrophyAugust 23, 2013Ignore all the reports of the climb being scary! Once you get outside, the railing is shoulder height and you have a fantastic view of Copenhagen to distract any fears.
Joe CooperAugust 30, 2015One of the best things to show visitors in Copenhagen. Amazing views from the top!
Quentin DCMay 31, 2014Weird opening hours but definitely worth it! Amazing scenery over Copenhagen & even Malmö
Niklas SejrJuly 12, 2011This has got to be the scariest place in town. Once you've conquered your fear, however, the view over Copenhagen is just gorgeous. Definitely worth a visit — also for children.
Hildo JuniorJune 8, 2013Great (and totally worth it) view to the whole town, but a little bit too harsh to climb the narrow stairs...
Lauren GilmoreSeptember 5, 2016For someone scared of heights, it's a simple trek up. But once you reach the outside, things can get a bit tight.
JSeptember 6, 2016Climbing to the top is the best thing to do in Copenhagen - amazing view of the city!
- FossyNovember 2, 2014Great views! It really isn't as challenging as it sounds. Also great for kids and the elderly.
shefali AbrolAugust 19, 2013Awesome view from the top and the oldest and most innovative stair case.... do not miss the adventure
JoostDecember 7, 2018Visit the church for free or pay a small entrance fee to go up the tower for one of the best views of Copenhagen!
VavaMarch 31, 2013Wonderful view on Copenhagen!!! 35 dkk... 400 steps... but... it is wonderful. Dont forget your camera. Closed at 16h.
Nicholas WMay 30, 2013It's worth looking in the church to see the elephants and altar as well, not just climbing the tower.
Danae MichaelidouMarch 21, 2017If you're claustrophobic don't even try it.. Many and steep stairs inside a really small space as you climb up :(- Shan BatesOctober 2, 2010400 steps to the top is worth the exhilarating view! If you don't have a credit card with pin code, it's best to bring cash.
George MacDAugust 21, 2014We actually felt unsafe on the outdoor part of the stairs. Yes the view is good but be careful!
Anna SopovaSeptember 6, 2011Visit it at your first day in Copenhagen. It's the best place to begin with.
Olga NovaSeptember 29, 2013Creepy place, don't go without life insurance. And, as one message on a wall says, call your mom.
Ekaterina PetrovaDecember 22, 2016The tower is closed until February 25 :( although the church works.
