Local tips

  • Visit earlier in the day if you prefer a quieter browse, as the shop can get busier when nearby attractions empty out in the afternoon.
  • Bring a small daypack or tote to carry multiple souvenirs, as many items are compact but quickly fill plastic bags.
  • If you plan to buy fragile pieces like small figurines or plates, ask for extra wrapping and keep them near the top of your luggage.

Souvenirs in the Heart of Royal Copenhagen

The Crown souvenir shop sits on Amaliegade, one of Copenhagen’s most refined streets, right in the historic Frederiksstaden district. From the outside it looks like a modest storefront, but step inside and you are met with shelves of Denmark-themed keepsakes, from magnets and keyrings to mugs, T-shirts and miniature landmarks. It is the kind of place where you can quickly find something that captures the essence of the city without needing to search far and wide. Many items here nod to the nearby royal quarter: crowns, crests and Danish flags are common motifs, and you will often spot designs inspired by the palaces and harborfront skyline. Whether you are after something playful for children or a more classic token to bring home, the focus is firmly on simple, easy-to-pack gifts that travel well.

Amaliegade’s Elegant Setting

Part of the charm of The Crown is its setting on Amaliegade, a street known for 18th-century townhouses, embassies and stately facades. Walking here, you are surrounded by pale stone mansions, tall windows and orderly architecture that reflect the Rococo planning of Frederiksstaden. The shop feels very much part of this cityscape, with its bright displays tucked into the ground floor of an otherwise formal streetscape. Because it is so close to Amalienborg Palace and the harbor promenade, the shop often becomes a natural pause point between cultural stops. You might wander past just after watching the changing of the Royal Guard or while exploring the waterfront and spot the familiar souvenir displays. Inside, the atmosphere is informal and unhurried, a contrast to the grandeur of the neighboring buildings.

What You Can Expect to Find Inside

The selection leans toward classic souvenirs rather than high design: think city postcards, Copenhagen skyline prints, Viking and rune-inspired trinkets, and a generous scattering of red-and-white Dannebrog flags. There are usually rows of shot glasses, decorative plates, fridge magnets, snow globes and small figurines of beloved local icons like the Little Mermaid. Practical items double as mementos, from tote bags and caps to mugs bearing Copenhagen scenes. Prices generally stay in an accessible range, making it easy to pick up a handful of small gifts for friends and family. The shop’s compact size means everything is close at hand; you can browse the full selection in just a few minutes, then take a little longer to choose your favorites.

Fitting a Visit Into Your Day

With long opening hours throughout the week, The Crown is convenient to visit whenever you happen to be in the area. Morning visits are often quieter, ideal if you prefer to browse in peace. Later in the day, the shop can be livelier as people drift in after sightseeing at the palace or along the harbor. Most visitors spend a short time here, often between nearby stops rather than as a stand-alone destination. It works well as a final pause before moving on to other corners of the city, especially if you want to avoid searching for gifts at the last moment at the airport. Its central setting also makes it easy to return if you change your mind about that extra keyring or T-shirt.

Atmosphere, Practicalities and Nearby Highlights

Inside, the environment is casual and straightforward: bright lighting, narrow aisles and wall-to-wall displays, more about choice and color than curated design. It is an indoor stop, sheltered from wind and rain, which makes it particularly useful on less predictable Scandinavian days. You can quickly escape the weather, browse a bit, and step back out onto one of Copenhagen’s most elegant streets. Being in the heart of Frederiksstaden, the shop is only a short walk from major sights, café-lined squares and harbor viewpoints. This proximity means you can easily pair your souvenir stop with a visit to the royal residences, nearby churches or waterfront promenades, turning a simple shopping errand into part of a broader exploration of Copenhagen’s historic core.
