The city park Fælledparken of Copenhagen is the most visited park in the capital and is used for many different events, gatherings and activities. The park has a lot to offer visitors like the biggest skatepark in Northern Europe, outdoor chess tables, sports grounds, a dance pavilion and of course their very own MONSTRUM playground.
The playground consists of five small versions of Copenhagen’s most famous buildings: The Town Hall Tower, the tower of Our Saviour’s Church, the Round Tower, the cupola of the Marble Church and the tower of the Stock Exchange.
The playground won The Danish Design Award and "The Best of the City" award in 2012.
The Copenhagen Stock exchange - Børsen - is famous for its tower, which consists of three dragons with their tails entwined.
Going down, the kids can take the slide or rope bridges to the Town Hall Tower. They can also climb the silhouette of the city to Our Saviour’s Church and play their own composition on the church bells.
