    The heart of Copenhagen. The square is surrounded by, among other things, the town hall, the newspaper publishing house Politikens Hus, on whose wall the ticker newspaper announces news from all over the world, and the Palace Hotel. The evening view of the fireworks in Tivoli is very nice from the Town Hall Square. The square is a traffic junction for buses and cars. Day and night, all year round, this square is a meeting point for people. There are bus terminals, street restaurants, newspaper kiosks and, last but not least, the sausage stands on wheels. Now that the entire town hall square has become a traffic-free zone, the square comes into its own much better. At the same time, access to the 'Strget' shopping street has become more natural.

      Rådhuspladsen, called the Town Hall Square, has a number of sculptures: the statues honor the famous poet Hans Christian Andersen and the physicist and Nobel Prize winner Niels Bohr, among others. In addition, the square in the middle of Copenhagen is a popular meeting place for the locals, who, for example, celebrated their team's victory at the European Football Championship in 1992. From the Rådhuspladsen there is a wonderful view of the fireworks from Tivoli.

        The Town Hall Square is located in the district of Indre By (downtown) and stretches out in front of the Town Hall.

                Rådhuspladsen has an area of 29,300 m² and is one of the liveliest places in the capital, hosting outdoor exhibitions, concerts or big screen broadcasts, among other things. It is also regularly used as a meeting place for New Year's Eve celebrations or demonstrations. The adjacent buildings have housed the largest array of neon signs in Denmark since the 1920s.

                    Life is already raging here and it goes directly into the city center.

                      One of the central and very beautiful squares in Copenhagen. There is always something going on here and there are lots of tourists in the summer. The brick architecture with the northern flair is worth seeing.

                        First of all, the Town Hall Square is a great place to soak up the atmosphere of the city. You will be able to observe many people going about their daily lives here, and the many cafes and restaurants ensure a relaxed atmosphere. It's also a great place to just relax and enjoy the sun.
                        But the town hall square also has a historical significance. It is the site of Copenhagen City Hall, one of the most important buildings in the city. Important political events take place here, and it is also the center of the city government. So if you have an interest in history and politics, this place is an absolute good place.

                          The town hall square marks the beginning of the old town (Indre By) and is located not far from the main train station opposite Tivoli.
