Thorvaldsens Museum is an older building with many stairs. Unfortunately, this means that conditions for wheelchair users are not ideal.
The museum does not have an accessible entrance or elevator between its three levels. However, it is possible to visit the museum in a wheelchair if one or more companions can assist the guest with lifting the guest and chair from street level into the museum and, if necessary, between floors. Museum staff are also happy to assist.
