Behind the Façade – Discover the Architecture of the Glyptotek

Bag facaden omvisning på Glyptoteket

On this tour we will delve into the museum’s architecture.

The tour takes a close look at the materials, mosaics and colours and hear stories about the three different buildings that make up the museum today.

Its building is the Glyptotek’s greatest work. An architectural monument in the heart of Copenhagen, the building provides an extraordinary setting for the museum’s artworks and objects – exactly as Carl Jacobsen wanted it to be.
