The Lapidarium of Kings, Stone sculpture museum in Slotsholmen, Denmark

The Lapidarium holds 300 stone sculptures and statues collected from royal gardens and palaces throughout Denmark's historical buildings.

The museum occupies Christian IV's Brewhouse, a 400-year-old structure that served as part of Copenhagen's military fortifications during the 17th century.

Danish monarchs commissioned these stone sculptures to decorate their palaces and cities, following French artistic influences of their time period.

Located at Frederiksholms Kanal 29, the museum opens from May through August, Tuesday to Sunday, between 12:00 and 16:00.

Visitors examine royal sculptures at eye level, providing close observation of artworks originally positioned on high facades and palace exteriors.
