Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK), also known as the National Gallery of Denmark, is the largest art museum in Denmark.
Statens Museum for Kunst was established in 1824 and is Denmark's principal museum for visual arts. The museum's founding purpose was to provide the public with access to art. Today, the museum's holdings encompass European art from the Renaissance to the present day, with a strong emphasis on Danish and Nordic art.
The museum organises SMK Fridays, a series of events held on the last Friday of each month. These events often include special exhibitions, performances, workshops, and other activities.
The museum also has a Cafe called the Kafeteria and serves both light brunch, lunch and snacks.
Getting to the SMK is easy by both bus, train, car or on foot. The museum is just next to Rosenborg Castle - 5 min. From Nørreport station.
