It is a grand and monumental building, but you might have seen more impressive cathedrals from the outside. Don't let i fool you! The inside is spectacular. The church functions as the royal burial church with amazing sarcophagus and caskets. It gives you a unique insight into Scandinavian royal history.

Amazing cathedral, the Danish equivalent of Saint Denis cathedral. It's a must for visiting the island of Zealand. The entrance fee is 60 DKR.

Roskilde Cathedral is one of the most iconic places to visit in Denmark if you want to experience the royal history of Denmark. The Kings and Queens are set to rest in this place. The architecture and the sarcophagus makes it a breathtaking place to reflect what made Denmark a great Kingdom

Gorgeous and well-documented in both Danish and English (except the 2nd floor museum, which is only in Danish)! The amount of history in here will keep you fascinated for hours!

UNESCO Site.. one of the oldest Cathedrals in Europe...A great and fascinating way to learn about the history of Danish Royalty starting with Bluetooth I. Absolutely beautiful example of the Gothic mixed with the Neo Classical

On Sunday the opening time is a bit short, from 13 to 16:45 I think. Other than that, the experience is great, you can take a small book that offers details and stories about every part of the cathedral. I highly recommend going there if you are around Copenhagen or in Roskilde for the festival.

Sadly the cathedral was closed on the day, we were there, but still had some wonderful hours there. They had an acceptable but somewhat silly max on ppl in the CATHEDRAL at 5 people. In my little village church in the same country, we are allowed 18 people (with masks of course). The admittance per adult on 60 dkkr is somewhat steep, and I've never liked charging for admittance to a christian church, but I think the money goes to maintaining the church, and that helps. The church in itself is very impressive, and is located in a cozy, beautyful and picturesque neighbourhood, and parking was easy at one of the nearby squares. Many of the royalties of Denmark are entombed in the church, and the city of Roskilde itself contains many other unique experiences, such as the Vikingship Museum, and is geographically located next to the fiord, with wavey hills - granting wonderful views, perfectly close to Copenhagen (easily accessable by train, car or bus, and at an acceptable distance on bicycle. The city is diverse in composition, and invites to a stroll in the inner city, down to the fiord and back.

I spend couple of hours in this church by just roaming and observing around every corner of the church. I find it very interesting how Denmark preserved this building for thousand of years. Not only beautiful cathedral but educational with so many sarcophagus and the final resting place of 39 Danish Royals. Beautiful art of work and museum. The story behind it is far more important but also UNESCO World Heritage list. Very well worth a visit and there is an opportunity also to see other places just by feet outside the cathedral. Highly recommend to see the this Church.
