Other Andersen attractions

Step out of the museum to explore the real world Anderson lived in. For instance, you can stop by his little childhood home where he lived with his parents from the age of 2 to 14. The house is a humble, modest one. There is an entry ticket to the house, but children under 18 are not charged. Then there is the Charity School where he studied. The building dates back to 1570 and was built in a typical renaissance style with storey overhangs. Even the washing site where Andersen's mother did the washing for the upper class citizens is preserved well for tourists.
