    Beautiful old graveyard, which is at the same time a park. Here you can walk fabulously between the overgrown graves, wondering what stories are hidden behind these names and dates, or lying in the grass on the grass in the summer in the summer. Pro-Tip: Drop in at Meyers Bageri in Jægersborggade.

    The cemetery is a very popular abbreviation for cyclists, so look on the main road always good, so as not to be surprised by the fast speed.

    Great very old celebrity cemetery. Hans Christian Andersen et al. is here. Great old trees.

    Hiking

    Significant graves are located here, e.g. B. von Niels Bohr, the Nobel Prize winner changed the world with his atomic model; Writers like Vilhelm Topsøe or Tan Turell. The latter is still very revered by the population and visitors stick pens on his grave, make selfvies there and, because he drank himself to death, leave empty whiskey bottles. Unfortunately, the cemetery administration keeps clearing the latter, but the many pens are also very impressive. Dan Turell's books are still available in German bookshops.
