A royal-flavoured stop on Bredgade

Royal Souvenir Shop sits on Bredgade, one of Copenhagen’s grandest streets, known for galleries, embassies and its proximity to the royal quarter. Step inside and the mood shifts from stately facades to colourful shelves lined with Denmark in miniature. It is very much a classic city-centre souvenir shop, but one that leans into the royal story suggested by its name and address, surrounded by palaces, churches and museums. Here you find the iconography that defines Copenhagen at a glance: the Dannebrog flag, the Little Mermaid, royal guards in their bearskin hats, bicycles, and stylised skylines. The focus is on small objects that slip easily into a suitcase, perfect if you are en route back to your hotel or cruise ship and want to tick everyone off your gift list in one go.

Gifts that capture Copenhagen in miniature

Inside, expect densely packed displays of magnets, keyrings, shot glasses, mugs and snow globes, each bearing familiar city scenes or Danish symbols. For something slightly more practical, there are T‑shirts, hoodies, caps and tote bags emblazoned with Copenhagen motifs or simple “Denmark” lettering in bold colours. Textiles and kitchenware often carry Nordic patterns, hearts or minimalist Scandinavian graphics, making them easygoing presents for friends at home. You may also spot children’s items such as plush toys dressed as royal guards, Viking helmets or playful trinkets that keep younger travellers entertained while you browse.

Royal, Nordic and a touch of kitsch

The “Royal” in the name is reflected less in fine porcelain and more in light-hearted interpretations of monarchy: crowns picked out in gold foil, postcards of palaces, and figurines inspired by guards or queens. This is where you pick up a fridge magnet of Amalienborg or a glossy postcard of the changing of the guard rather than heirloom collectibles. Alongside the royal angle, broader Nordic themes appear: minimalist designs, Viking symbols, moose or reindeer motifs, and winter scenes that play into the idea of hygge. The result is a lively, slightly kitschy mix that embraces both tradition and humour, ideal if you prefer fun over formality in your travel mementos.

Quick, convenient browsing near key sights

Royal Souvenir Shop is designed for speed and convenience. The space is compact, with narrow aisles and items displayed right up to the counter, encouraging a quick loop rather than a long, lingering visit. That makes it easy to drop in between sightseeing stops, especially if you are exploring nearby attractions such as palaces, churches and waterfront promenades. Prices tend to cover a broad spectrum: inexpensive magnets and postcards at one end, slightly pricier clothing or décor at the other. It is not a specialist design boutique, but a straightforward place to grab something tangible to remember the city by, whether that is a simple flag patch for your backpack or a decorative plate for your kitchen wall.

Part of a wider Bredgade shopping stroll

Because of its central location, the shop often forms part of a longer wander along Bredgade and adjoining streets, where you can mix culture, history and shopping in a single outing. The contrast between the refined architecture outside and the playful gift selection inside adds to its charm. Think of Royal Souvenir Shop as a bridge between the formal world of Copenhagen’s royal and cultural institutions and the informal joy of holiday treasure-hunting. You step out with a bag of small, colourful objects that will, once home, trigger memories of cobbled streets, grand squares and crisp Nordic air every time you catch sight of them.
