Modernist Marvel with Waterfront Views: Langelinie Pavillonen
Mid-century modern pavilion and landmark event venue with panoramic views, situated on Copenhagen’s historic Langelinie promenade by the harbor.
Langelinie Pavillonen is an iconic mid-century modern event pavilion poised on Copenhagen’s waterfront, with panoramic harbor views and bold architectural lines. Built in 1958 atop the historical Langelinie promenade, the pavilion is renowned for its striking glass façade, elegant function spaces, and close proximity to major city landmarks, including the Little Mermaid statue. While its primary function is as a high-profile venue for conferences and private events, its architectural pedigree and public-facing terraces make it a point of interest along the city’s harbor walk.

Getting There
-
Walking
Langelinie Pavillonen is set along the waterfront, just north of the city center. From the main rail hub or the Royal Palace (Amalienborg), it’s about a 20–30 minute walk, largely along scenic harbor pathways. Strolling here brings you past parklands and Copenhagen’s famous Little Mermaid statue, making the journey as rewarding as the destination.
-
Public Transport
Buses from central Copenhagen—such as lines heading for Østerport—stop within easy walking distance of Langelinie. Expect an 8–15 minute ride, followed by a pleasant walk along the well-marked harborfront. Single tickets are priced at 24–30 DKK for adults. Note that while there’s no metro directly on Langelinie, Østerport Station is a convenient rail and S-train interchange a short distance away.
-
Taxi
Taxis from the historic city center or major hotels typically reach Langelinie Pavillonen in 10–15 minutes, depending on traffic. Fares generally range from 100 to 140 DKK for the short journey.
-
Driving/Parking
There is paid parking available beside the Langelinie promenade, though spaces can fill quickly during large events or busy tourist periods. Rates usually range around 24–28 DKK per hour. The waterfront setting means parking spots may be in high demand on sunny days.
