Experience an authentic Copenhagen 1930 backyard

Unleash your imagination in an authentic backyard that reflects the environment of working-class children in the 1930s. It’s a place filled with rules, unsanitary toilets, and grumpy adults, but it also offers opportunities for play and free imagination, away from responsibilities and reprimands. For working-class children in the 1930s, even a small puddle could transform into a beach, and a rooftop on a bike shed could become a holiday camp through the power of imagination.

In the courtyard, you can:

👉Explore the old toilets – dare you sit on the barrel?

👉Engage in historical games like “terre” and “jante” and enjoy a game of hopscotch.

👉Experience the challenges of battling with homemade shields made from margarine lids.

👉Test your skills in doing laundry the way it was done in the backyards of the 1930s.
