The former capital of Denmark, Roskilde is now a quiet province town housing a medieval cathedral and vikingship museum.
Roskilde was the capital of Denmark until some 600 years ago. Nowadays, it has turned into a pleasant town, a short hop from the modern million-plus capital city Copenhagen. Its main attraction is probably the Domkirke or Cathedral, which has been declared a Unesco World Heritage Site. Construction of this cathedral started in the 12th century, and because of several additions it is a curious mix of several different Danish styles. The cathedral towers imposingly above its immediate surroundings, and since it is built on a hilltop, you can see it also from quite far down below.
