Death's Walk: A Walking Tour of Plague, Miracle Cures and Dangerous Treatments

This walking tour follows the bloody history of medicine through Copenhagen. It begins at the old anatomical theatre, where guests hear about the first dissections of the human body.

Along the way the guide tells grim stories of old treatments, miracle cures and the great epidemics of plague and cholera. The route passes Kongens Have, Nyboder and Frederiks Hospital, and ends at the old maternity foundation, with a tale of a notorious woman who killed her patients.
