The Danish Parliament will open its doors to visitors as part of Copenhagen’ Night of Culture (Kulturnatten) festival. “Kulturnatten” is an annual event, during which cultural institutions and other organizations in Copenhagen welcome visitors and offer many different kinds of activities.
This year, the Night of Culture is Friday the 14 October. You have the opportunity to walk around the parliament on your own, and you get to meet the Speaker and representatives from each of the political parties. The Chamber is open to the public, and so is the library and committee rooms. Members and employees will be on hand to explain about their work and Parliament.

The corridors and conference rooms are filled with masterly paintings and other works of art.
Take a look at them on Night of Culture.
