What is Copenhagen famous for?

Asked by Wiki User

If you mean from an tourism point of view:

Historically: Home to writer H. C. Andersen (from age 14). Which is probably why the statue of the Little mermaid (a character from one of his fairytales) has become the symbol of Copenhagen.

Current time : Firstly 'Tivoli' amusement park which is special due to its historical feel to it and it's unique location in the very center of town (right next to the town hall). Secondly - and as long as it lasts: The so-called free town of 'Christiania', which are a former navy barracks that was taken over by hippie squatters in the 1971 and turned in to an alternative community with a.o. open sales and use of drugs.

What is the country is Copenhagen?

Asked by Wiki User

Could be several things :

* Capital of Denmark (and until 1814 also of Norway). Founded in the late viking age (not 1167 as most dictionaries state), and becoming capital (i.e. the permanent of the King) in the mid 15th century.

* A theatre play about the unsuccessful attempt of German scientist Werner Heisenberg to get atomic secrets from his Danish colleague Niels Bohr during WW2. After the war Heisenberg claimed he had only been pretenting to work towards a German nuclear bomb to please the nazi regime, and accordingly he actually didn't want info out of Bohr.

* The famous horse belonging to the Duke of Wellington which he rode in the battle of Waterloo (A model can be seen in the battlefield museum!). The name probably stems from the fact that the Duke (when he was still only Sir Arthur Wellesley) in 1807 had participated in the British campaign on the island of Zealand on which the city of Copenhagen is located.

* A American brand of snuff.
