At the Workers Museum (Arbejdermuseet) in Copenhagen, children are invited into an immersive world that brings Denmark’s working-class history to life through playful and interactive experiences. A highlight is the dedicated "Children’s Workers Museum," where kids can step into the roles of young apprentices from the 1930s. Here, they dress up, learn trades like printing and shoemaking, and even handle old tools, allowing them to experience what life was like for children in the past, both at home and at work. The setup is hands-on, engaging, and designed to spark curiosity while making history feel tangible and personal.

 

Beyond the roleplay, kids can explore the recreated apartments of working-class families, wander through a nostalgic corner shop, and get a taste of historical daily life. There are often seasonal activities and workshops tailored for children, especially during holidays. The museum strikes a balance between education and play, making it an enriching visit that’s both fun and thought-provoking for young visitors. With plenty of space to explore and stories to discover, it’s an ideal cultural outing for families in the heart of Copenhagen.
