Walk in the footsteps of Denmark's most famous philosopher, Søren Kierkegaard, through the streets of 19th-century Copenhagen.

This self-guided audio tour, narrated by Kierkegaard expert Ann-Mari Blom, takes you on a philosophical journey through the heart of Copenhagen. You’ll visit 11 key locations that shaped the life and thought of the “father of existentialism,” including his childhood home at Nytorv and the sites of his famous “human baths”—his practice of immersing himself in the city’s crowds to observe human nature.

The tour covers major landmarks like the Round Tower and Christiansborg Palace, but its real value lies in the storytelling that connects these physical spaces to Kierkegaard’s internal world. You’ll learn about his broken engagement to Regine Olsen, his critiques of the Danish State Church, and his unique perspective on the bustling 19th-century capital.

As with most StoryHunt tours, the experience is location-aware and includes interactive elements like quizzes. While the web page lists a price, the tour is often available for free through the StoryHunt app. Note that the tour requires a continuous internet connection and cannot be downloaded for offline use.
