Where to stay in Bellahøj
Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Bellahøj keeps flats and the Bellahøj Houses, not hotel desks, so the practical choice is a bed in central Copenhagen with the park reached by a short ride out. Two churches anchor the walk here: Bellahøj Kirke and Brønshøj Kirke, with Genforeningspladsen and Grøndal MultiCenter among the other addresses the area carries. Nobody books here for the address.

About Bellahøj
What are the main landmarks in Bellahøj?
Bellahøj Kirke, Brønshøj Kirke and Ansgar Kirke put three church towers inside the same short radius, with Genforeningspladsen and Grøndal MultiCenter filling out the list of addresses the area is credited with. Visitors come for the hill. Bellahøj Park does that work, with its open-air theatre and the 37 metre rise that stands higher than any other ground in Copenhagen.
What is the history of Bellahøj?
Copenhagen's own dates do the work here. Bellahøj reaches the record through the Bellahøj Houses, a functionalist housing project, and through the parkland laid out with an open-air theatre on the same slope. A founding date was never entered for it.
Brønshøj Kirke, Ansgar Kirke and Bellahøj Kirke are the named church addresses the area carries, and Genforeningspladsen the named square, but the dates behind them belong to the wider city rather than to this hill.
Where is Bellahøj?
Bellahøj lies five kilometres northwest of central Copenhagen, and the hill in Bellahøj Park, 37 metres up, is the highest ground the city holds.
