What people say

"The Round Tower is where you should go if you like viewpoints. Aside from being a beautiful old building stemming from 1642, you get an amazing view of the city from the highest level of the Rundetaarn. With your ticket for the tower, you can also visit the observatory that’s located at the top. Did you know the Rundetaarn houses the oldest observatory in Europe? And it’s still in use! It’s also good to note that the Rundetaarn is not just a tower. It’s connected to a church and a library hall, the latter of which always has a museum-worthy exhibition on display. There are also plenty of activities for kids hosted in and around the tower. Clearly it’s a must to visit!"

Meredith Pierce
"Affordable, quick and gorgeous views!"
