History
Denmark is the oldest monarchy in EUROPE. The Bronze Age :The Sun Chariot in Copenhagen's Nationalmuseet is just one of several amazing Bronze Age artefacts. The real stars of the Age though are the bodies, such as the Tollund Man and the Grauballe Man exhumed from Denmark's peat bogs after their two-millennia slumber.
The Stone Age: They may not quite match other European sights such as Newgrange or Stonehenge, but the appeal of the stone dolmens and passage graves on islands such as Møn is their remoteness and haunting stillness.
