The Queen was the first to view the exhibition on the enchanted life of Hans Christian Andersen. Museum Director Ejnar Askgaard guided Her Majesty through the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen, which features hundreds of exhibits from the life of the poet. Her Majesty showed informed interest and added interesting anecdotes on the life of Hans Christian Andersen herself.
