Book a tour
Book a private tour with one of our museum curators. It's a great opportunity to delve even deeper into 400 years of Danish Jewish history, the museum's objects, and the museum's professional choices behind the exhibitions.
We offer tours for all kinds of groups – families, companies, groups of friends or anything else. You can be up to 20 people.
We always aim to give you the museum to yourself, so tours take place on the museum's closing days. This gives you the best possible experience of both the architecture and the exhibition. If that suits you better, tours can also be arranged during opening hours.
Anyone can book a tour in Danish or English. Write us an email at info@jewmus.dk.

Jewish life in Copenhagen
Walking Tour
With everything from discreet synagogues to impressive merchant houses, Danish Jews have left their mark on the capital over time. Turkish merchants and Pakistani kiosks are a modern feature of the cityscape, but the story of how new Danes and minorities have left their mark on Copenhagen is long.
On our city walk we take a closer look at some of the Jewish houses that are still in use. And then there are the small signs of Jewish life that can be found all around Copenhagen in the form of, for example, memorial plaques and a cryptic inscription in Hebrew on the Round Tower. We start in front of the Danish Jewish Museum.
weekdays: 2500 DKK (10am-17pm)

Practical information about the tours
As an authorized guide with a card from the Tourist Guides Association, you are welcome to come with groups during the museum's opening hours. However, we recommend that you read the following carefully for the sake of the possibilities of getting the whole group in.
Book in advance
We recommend that you book a time outside the museum's opening hours. You are welcome to explore on your own. Tours must be booked in advance, no later than 14 days before the tour takes place. Once the booking has been made, we will send you an invoice.
Price
The entrance fee is 90 DKK per person for groups of 10–30 people. Smaller groups are also welcome, but a minimum payment of 10 people is required. In addition, there is a guard fee of 400 DKK and an administration fee of 100 DKK.
Contact the museum to book a time for tours with your groups info@jewmus.dk.
Entrance and small bags
The museum's entrance area can only accommodate 15 people at a time, and larger groups must therefore be split up and closed into sections. We recommend that larger groups do not bring bags larger than A5, as we do not have locker space for groups over 30.
Everyone is welcome to book a tour. write to info@jewmus.dk, then we'll figure something out together.
It is also possible to tailor a special arrangement or order tours with specific professional angles. We are also happy to adapt, whether it is a company event or a private culture club, evening schools or family gatherings – we help and adapt to your interests and needs.
