Christiansborg Palace student combination ticket
All four Christiansborg visitor sites on one date, for students with valid student ID.
The student ticket covers exactly the same four sites as the adult ticket: the Royal Reception Rooms, the Royal Kitchen, the Ruins and the Royal Stables, all on the date you choose. The only difference is eligibility. The palace checks your student ID at the entrance, so bring the physical card with you.
What to expect
At the first site you visit, staff scan your ticket and ask for your student ID. Keep it with you, as you may be asked again at the other sites. The check is done by the palace, not by us, so a photo of your card may not be enough.
Inside, you follow the same route as every visitor: the King's Staircase, the Throne Room and its proclamation balcony, the Hall of the Giants and the Great Hall with its 17 tapestries. Downstairs, the Royal Kitchen shows the preparations for Christian X's jubilee banquet of 1937, and the Ruins take you back to Bishop Absalon's castle of 1167.
Leave the Royal Stables for the afternoon, as they open from 13:30 to 16:00. Most people need three to four hours for all four sites, with a break in between.
