About Copenhagen Contemporary
This massive contemporary art space occupies a former welding hall in the industrial Refshaleøen peninsula, featuring large-scale installations and rotating exhibitions. Admission is free or DKK 60 depending on the exhibition, with works too big for traditional museums.
Insider Tips
Combine your visit with the weekend street food at Reffen next door, and explore the old shipyard buildings along the waterfront after viewing the art.
