The Roskilde Jars are a trio of monumental ceramic vessels located outside the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde, Denmark. Created by the Danish artist Peter Brandes in 1998, these jars are not only significant in their sheer size, standing about 5 meters tall, but also in their symbolic connection to Danish history and mythology. The Roskilde Jars serve as both public art and a cultural landmark, bridging past and present while offering a striking visual experience for visitors.

Se encuentra a la salida de la estación de tren, el lugar es hermoso para caminar y distraerse. Cuenta con varios cafés y sitios donde comer.
