RAGNAROCK is a museum of rock, pop, and youth culture, tying into Roskilde's identity as home to Northern Europe's largest music festival (Roskilde Festival). Exhibits cover Danish and international music history through memorabilia, sound installations, and interactive displays, with an emphasis on the sensory and social experience of music rather than a dry historical survey.

It's a fun, well-executed stop for music fans, especially those with any connection to Roskilde Festival, and works well combined with a walk along the harbor.
