The Magic Flute is rich in history. Located just off lively Nyhavn, the building dates all the way back to 1658 (there’s a plaque at the entrance detailing all the owners throughout the years). With crooked, creaky floors, it’s oozing old charm – and paired with Matilde’s artwork, instruments, and personality, it becomes one of a kind. She’s an opera singer and works just down the road in the Royal Opera House, which only makes this home even more special.

Found within the city limits of Indre By, it’s typically the first stop on any tour of Copenhagen as it’s within walking distance to some of the most famous attractions – Strøget, Kongens Nytorv, Designmuseum Danmark, Amalienborg Palace (where Queen Margrethe lives), as well as Kastellet....
