A witty walking tour through medieval Copenhagen, set against the Renaissance ambitions of King Christian IV to turn the city into an international trading town. The guide leads you through the crooked streets of the old town, telling tales of market women, taverns, scandal and the rough life of the street.
Expect the Devil himself, who is said to have run loose in Laksegade, plus stories of the lavish wedding feast known as "Det store bilager" and a look behind the facades at the women of Magstræde. Along the way you will also hear about the picturesque quarter around Nikolaj Church that H.C. Andersen once described.
