Death and Drama in Copenhagen - half day history tour

A nice walk on the dark side of Copenhagen will lead us through most of the great sights of Copenhagen - so you will also visit a lot of must-see-places! We'll meet at the lovely Nyhavn and hear of the hard forced labor that created it. Afterward, we see one of the palaces created by money made on the slave trade and hear the story about the close ties between the royal theater and high-end prostitution. The trip can take us past a small city cemetery, where you will hear about the problems of burying people in a crowded and walled-in city before we visit the parliament and old royal castle to hear about a couple of political scandals and the fires that have destroyed the building several times. We might take a break at a historical pub or for lunch before we go on to hear more stories from the bad old days.
