Køn - Gender Museum Denmark
Denmark's national museum dedicated to gender, sexuality, and body culture, opened in 2014 in a former police headquarters. Exhibitions tackle everything from historical gender roles to contemporary identity politics through artifacts, multimedia installations, and interactive displays. The tone stays educational rather than provocative. Special exhibitions rotate every few months. Admission costs 95 DKK. The building's history as a police station adds an ironic layer to the current mission. Located in the Latin Quarter.
