Classens Have

Classens Have is a public garden in Copenhagen covering roughly one hectare of land with diverse plant varieties. The site features maintained pathways, seating areas, and is registered as a protected monument in the Danish cultural heritage system.

The garden was established in 1925 and named after an influential Copenhagen resident. This creation took place during a period when public green spaces were being expanded throughout the city.

The name comes from Johan Frederik Classen, who shaped the development of this Copenhagen neighborhood. The site serves today as a place where people walk, rest, and enjoy the green space.

The garden is located in Copenhagen and can be easily explored on maintained pathways. Visitors should be aware that certain areas, especially around monuments, have restrictions in place.

The site is subject to special protection rules as it is registered in the Danish Kulturstyrelsen register as a protected monument. This designation means that certain activities, such as metal detecting near monuments, are not permitted.
