Ripley’s is included on both cards. Adult entry is €23 (169 DKK) without one. Scanning your card here also admits you to the H.C. Andersen Fairy-Tale House at the same entrance.
Both cards cover entry. The part worth reading twice is what else that single scan opens, and what it does not.
A collection of oddities, illusions and record-breaking objects on the corner of Rådhuspladsen, with a second venue behind the same door. Allow about an hour and a half.
Robert Ripley spent thirty years travelling for things that seemed impossible, and the Copenhagen branch — the only one in Scandinavia — holds over five hundred pieces of what he brought back: shrunken heads, optical illusions you walk through, objects whose only claim is that they should not exist. It is a walk-through, not a museum in the study-the-label sense.
A walk-through of the stories — the Little Mermaid, the Emperor, the Tinderbox — aimed squarely at younger children. It sits behind the same entrance and the card scan covers it, which effectively makes this two attractions for one.
Rådhuspladsen 57, with the entrance at the metro station itself. Tivoli is across the square and the National Museum is a few minutes away, so this fits into a gap in the day rather than needing one built around it.
One scan covers more than the sign outside suggests, one ticket price is not the one you will see quoted, and one closing time we cannot confirm. Checked against ripleys.com.
Rådhuspladsen 57, with the entrance at the metro station. About as central as an attraction gets, and covered on both cards.
It covers Ripley's & H.C. Andersen along with 80+ other attractions and all public transport.
Only going here? The card pays for itself across several attractions, not one. If Ripley's & H.C. Andersen is the only thing on your list, a single ticket is the cheaper buy.
All three are included on the same card, so the only cost of adding them is the time. For the full list, see every attraction the Copenhagen Card covers.
The 1843 pleasure gardens across the square — gardens, buildings and the wooden rollercoaster, with rides sold separately from entry.
Seventy-odd exhibits on Strøget built around perception and optical tricks, and the latest-closing attraction on the card.
Denmark's national collection — the Bronze Age Sun Chariot, the bog finds and the Viking rooms — with a Children's Museum included in the same ticket.
Entry is €23 per adult (169 DKK) without a card, and 109 DKK for children aged 4 to 11. Both cards include it — along with the H.C. Andersen Fairy-Tale House on the same scan, 80+ more attractions and unlimited public transport.
Entry is free on both cards, and the same scan also admits you to the H.C. Andersen Fairy-Tale House at the same entrance. Without a card an adult pays €23 (169 DKK), children 4–11 109 DKK. Guinness is on the card too, on its own scan, but at the other end of Strøget rather than next door.
Ripley's opens every day of the week, Mondays included, which makes it one of the dependable Monday options in the city centre alongside the Museum of Copenhagen and the Planetarium. Listings disagree on the closing time — some say 7pm, others 10pm — so check ripleys.com before a late visit.
Nothing needs booking. Show the QR code in the Copenhagen Card app at the entrance and walk in. Mention the H.C. Andersen Fairy-Tale House at the desk so both venues are opened on the one scan.
One scan per attraction applies, so this is a single visit per card. The H.C. Andersen Fairy-Tale House comes with that same scan rather than counting as a second one, while Guinness World Records, fifteen minutes away at Østergade 16, has a scan of its own — also covered.
Show the live QR code in the Copenhagen Card app at the entrance and let staff scan it. Your booking confirmation email is not your card, and a screenshot of the QR code will not scan — it has to be the app itself, which works offline once activated.
