Discover the up-and-coming Nordvest neighbourhood

Nordvest is Nørrebro's ‘up-and-coming’ little sister. It has an industrial and raw look, patchy green areas, and great cultural diversity. To get really under the skin of the architecture and urban development in this area, we recommend walking or biking to get the full experience.
Spend a day in Nordvest
Nordvest often stands in the shadow of its more famous neighbouring areas but shouldn't be underestimated if you want to go real local and get under the skin of Copenhagen. One must-see in Nordvest is the jaw-dropping Grundtvig’s Church, but the neighbourhood also contains some hidden gems worth a visit. Spend a day or a half in NV with this quick guide.

When visiting Nordvest, we highly recommend going by bike. Going from the city centre to Nordvest takes you through the Nørrebro neighbourhood, so you actually get two areas of Copenhagen for the price of one!
