What To Expect
Copenhagen City Hall
City Hall Square is Copenhagen's largest square. The City Hall building is recognizable by its ornate brick front, clock tower, and the gilded statue of the city’s founder, Bishop Absalon, over the front balcony. The hall was built in the National Romantic style, which was popularized by the architect Martin Nyrop. His design is inspired by the City Hall in Siena, Italy.
The Round Tower
The round tower is a 17th century astronomical observatory that is part of the Trinitatis Complex, which includes the Trinitatis Church and an academic library for the neighbouring Copenhagen University. The library was opened in 1657 and once housed the university’s entire collection — around 10,000 books. Instead of stairs, the tower features a ramp that spirals to the top of the structure.

Audio quality is sub par

3.00Great info. However, the audio was difficult to hear. The background sounds and effects muffled the speaker. Quality became staticky when played loudly.
With some preparation, a self guided tour that actually works

4.00It starts by having you download the .zip file ahead of time to your smartphone. When you unzip the file there is a map, 13 audio files as well as some other files. Unlike other self guided tours which depend on the GPS signal from your phone to conduct the tour and says 'not all those who wander are lost but you seem to be lost, consult the map'. This message is very frustrating and of no help whatsoever. This tour actually provides you with audio directions to get you to each of the destinations and the map that was provided was also helpful. The facts presented at each stop were great but the audio quality could be improved along with the narrator who sounded like he was not interested in the material and was simply reading a script.
