Hi Boggler I would have suggested the Resistance Museum, but it is closed due to a fire in April 2013, and the new one is not opening until 2018. However there are these Museums. link natmus.dk/en/toejhusmuseet Have a good time! |

The National Army Museum is there in the Toejhus (Old Armory). I know it's on my list if I ever get there. Here's a link. natmus.dk/toejhusmuseet |

There's the Palace somewhere in town with 'chocolate box' soldiers on guard outside. I'd tell you more but it's more than 50 years since I've been there! This 'travelogue' of a webfriend might help. link |

The statue of the Little Mermaid. The feminists who periodically cut its head off are about as militant as you can get. |

William Kaiser lives in malmo and works in Copenhagen, as well as having a games club there. He'll be able to suggest some things, as well as hosta game!! He's on TMP. |

I highly recommend you get a bag of Salty Fisk – slated liquorice. It is superb…but don't eat too much in one go. Great city, hope you enjoy the trip |

Definitely visit the National Army museum. Lots of artillery and the only complete sets of US infantry and cavalry uniform from just before the Civil War. I went there about a year ago and really enjoyed it. link |
