This description of the Michelin Journey 3-star museum is in their own words: In Den Gamle By, you become one with history, and you are able to smell, taste, and feel your way forward while exploring the streets and passages, looking into people’s homes, and striking a bargain in one of the historical shops. Throughout the museum, you will meet people in historical costumes who will show you around and tell you about the exhibits. It’s almost like being there yourself. The Christmas shop Visit the Christmas shop, where you can buy hand-painted glass ornaments. Handicrafts Find Christmas gifts in the stalls on the first floor in Bendtsen Warehouse. Open everyday from 15 - 23 December. Lunch at Restaurant Gæstgivergården Have a break and taste Danish Christmas traditions.
