Royal Danish Naval Museum, Maritime and military museum in Christianshavn, Denmark.

The Royal Danish Naval Museum exhibits hundreds of ship models, navigation equipment, weapons, and uniforms related to the Danish naval history.

Founded in 1957 through Vice Admiral A.H. Vedel, the museum initially operated in St. Nicolas Church before relocating to various locations until 1989.

The museum displays artworks depicting naval history by Danish painters Christian Mølsted and Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg alongside maritime artifacts and model collections.

The building at Overgaden Oven Vandet 58 charged DKK 75 for adults while children under 18 entered without payment before its closure.

The collection includes naval models from the 1660s that served as construction blueprints, featuring an unnamed vessel with Niels Juel's bust on its transom.
