Introduction to Rungstedlund

21km (13 miles) N of Copenhagen

Between Copenhagen in the south and Helsingør in the north, the second-most-important stopover is this elegant town where many Danes come in the summer to rent cottages, which they often surround with flower gardens. By all means, make the museum of Louisiana your first major stopover, but if time remains, you can pay your respects to one of the greatest of all Scandinavian writers.
