Nationalmuseet | Celebrating the first day of work on Denmark Tavern 6 October 2015 @natmusdk | Uploaded December 2015 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
The Denmark Tavern and Hotel was erected in the 1780s, and is one of the few remaining riverside buildings from the time of the Danish settlement in Serampore (1755-1845).
