FRIDAY, AUGUST 24, 1990

661-3838

n September 6, 1819,
a tall, awkward boy
arrived in Copen-
hagen on the mail coach from
Odense. At age 14, Hans
Christian Andersen came to
the Danish capital to seek his
fortune.
He dreamed of becoming a
famous actor at the Royal
Theater. Though that dream
did not come true, he did
become a world famous writer
of fairy-tales who remained
enchanted with Copenhagen
throughout his life.
Just as it charmed
Andersen, Copenhagen con-
tinues to enchant visitors.
The Little Mermaid statue,
the lush Tivoli gardens, the
mile-long walking street,
pastel colored canal houses,
copper domes — all make this
a fairy-tale city for tourists.
For Jewish travelers,
Copenhagen is even more.
This is a city where a story of
courage and rescue — the
rescue of 7,000 Danish Jews
from the Nazis — actually
happened. The dangers, the
drama, the triumphant con-
clusion of this story make it
far better than any fairy-tale.
Copenhagen also offers
specific attractions for the
Jewish travelers. They can
visit a museum which re-
counts the Danes' four years
of resistance to the Nazis and
includes vividly detailed
displays of the famous rescue
of Danish Jews.
Jewish tourists can also
visit the tower where the
Torah scrolls were hidden
during the Nazi occupation
and see the synagogue where

Jews returned to celebrate
after the liberation.
The first stop on the Jewish
traveler's itinerary should be
the modest-looking museum
in Churchillparken which of-
fers the best-documented ac-
count of the story of Danish
Resistance.
Outside the Frihedsmuseet
(Museum of Freedom), the
Danish flag is flying, and the
atmosphere gives the visitor
no preparation for the drama
of the story that's told inside.
Newspaper clippings, maps,
photographs, even old prin-
ting presses which turned out
secret newsletters — all docu-
ment how the citizens of the
small country built a
resistance movement from
1940 to 1945, when Denmark
was occupied by the Nazis.
One wall of exhibits is
devoted to the rescue of the
Danish Jews. Here visitors
may view the photos, the
maps, the detailed account of
the rescue that took place in
October, 1943, when 7,000
Danish Jews were saved from
deportation.
As the exhibits explain, the
Danes had learned in ad-
vance that the Nazis planned
to round up all Danish Jews.
Quickly the non-Jewish
Danes mobilized.
They hid Jews in their
homes and in hospitals. And
then they started to transport
them across the water to
neutral Sweden. They used
small fishing boats, rowing
across the water at night,
steering through fog, danger
and darkness, risking their
lives to deliver the Jews to
safety.
The Jewish visitor can
follow still another aspect of
this inspiring rescue story by
