Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Art museum in central Copenhagen, Denmark
The museum displays Egyptian, Greek, and Roman sculptures along with French and Danish paintings in connected exhibition halls of neoclassical design.
Carl Jacobsen, son of Carlsberg Breweries founder, established the museum in 1888 to share his private art collection with Danish citizens.
The museum maintains over 10,000 artworks, including French Impressionist paintings and complete collections of bronze sculptures by Degas and Rodin.
The Glyptotek opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00, with extended hours until 22:00 on Thursdays, welcoming over 500,000 visitors annually.
The central winter garden features a copper dome, palm trees, and a fountain, connecting the original Dahlerup Wing with the newer Kampmann Wing.
