Freetour: Kierkegaard and becoming yourself

Søren Kierkegaard is one amongst maybe five best known Danish persons ever. Who is this philosopher that throughly investigated how you become yourself?!

This tour is for you who heard about Kierkegaard in your studies or later on; but also for you who has never heard about him before.

We start at the royal theater at Kongens Nytorv and walk to the school he attended. We walk to the school he attended, our Ladies' church and to Nytorv 2 (where he was born and raised). Then we walk through "Det kongelige bibliotekshave", where we see Louis Hasselriis' statue of Søren Aabye Kierkegaard, which was made already in 1879. We end at Søren Kierkegaard's plads and the black diamond.

You will hear about Kierkegaard in his city of Copenhagen in 1800-1860.

You will likewise get to know some of Kierkegaard's general ideas in becoming yourself.

I use my Danish humor during the tour :-). And I welcome a lot of questions.

Book this tour now and get to know a different Copenhagen with the Danish philosopher Kierkegaard.
