Museums Top Autumn Holiday List for Danish Residents

Danes love visiting museums and animal parks during the autumn holiday in week 42. If you live in Denmark, this is a great time to visit local culture spots. A new survey shows 20 percent of residents plan to visit these places. Dansk Erhverv commissioned the survey from Norstat in September 2026. Historical sites, theme parks, and water parks are also popular choices.

Overall, 58 percent of Danes will take an autumn break this year. About 45 percent of holidaymakers plan to stay in Denmark. Another 16 percent plan to travel abroad for their vacation. Southern Europe is the top choice for overseas travel. About 18 percent of international travelers will visit another Nordic country.

However, 35 percent of people surveyed have no plans for cultural activities. Dansk Erhverv culture director Michael Folmer Wessman welcomed the interest in culture. He said the holiday means family time and new experiences for many people. Norstat surveyed 1,012 Danish adults for CPH Post's reported study.
