Gorgeous cemetery in the edgy Nørrebro district. Originally built as an overflow to the central cemetery, it rapidly became THE place to be buried for Copenhageners. Extremely well kept and popular with sunbathers in the summer, you can find the graves of Denmark's two most famous writers there - Hans Christian Andersen and Soren Kierkegaard.
