A Green Oasis in the Heart of the City
Tucked behind Medical Museion at Bredgade 62 lies a peaceful and atmospheric courtyard. Surrounded by historic buildings, wildflowers, and birdsong, you’ll find our cozy summer café. Make a break from the city’s pace and enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee, a light lunch, or a chilled glass of wine. Entry to the courtyard is free — not only for museum guests, but for everyone.
Menu
The café offers salads, paninis, sandwiches, cakes, and light snacks. We serve cold beer, wine, and homemade lemonade. Whether you prefer a cappuccino or espresso, our barista will make sure you get a great cup of coffee.

Historic Surroundings
Medical Museion is housed in the former Royal Academy of Surgery, established in 1787. It is one of the most iconic buildings in Danish medical history. Notable figures such as Niels Bohr, Peter Panum, August and Marie Krogh, Nielsine Nielsen, and Niels Ryberg Finsen have all walked its halls.

Medical Museion
Today, the museum researches, collects, and communicates the history and culture of medicine. Explore exhibitions and events that delve into the human body, mind, health, and disease.
