The Worker Museum, or the Museum of Workers in Copenhagen, is a unique museum dedicated to the social and cultural history of the Danish working class. Located in the heart of the city, inside a historic building from 1879, it offers a fascinating journey through over 150 years of struggles, achievements, and daily life of the workers.
The permanent exhibitions feature documents, photographs, everyday objects, posters, and reconstructions of environments that narrate the birth of trade unions, social changes, and the evolution of working conditions in Denmark. A particularly evocative section is dedicated to the workers' housing of the late 19th century, where visitors can immerse themselves in the domestic life of the time.
The museum also dedicates ample space to the culture of leisure time, music, and popular traditions, offering a comprehensive perspective on the country's social history. Temporary exhibitions and interactive workshops make the visit interesting and engaging, suitable for both adults and children.
The Worker Museum is the ideal place for those who want to understand how the history of labor and solidarity have contributed to building modern Danish society.
