    Køge Museum offers visitors an insightful look into the local history of Køge and its surrounding area. Located in a charming old merchant's house from the 17th century, the museum provides a fitting backdrop for its exhibits. The collection spans from prehistoric times to the present day, showcasing archaeological finds, cultural artifacts, and historical documents.

    Visitors often appreciate the well-curated exhibits that tell the story of Køge's development as a market town and its role in Danish history. The museum does a good job of presenting information in both Danish and English, making it accessible to international tourists. The staff is generally described as friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience.

    One of the highlights frequently mentioned is the exhibition on the witch trials that took place in Køge during the 17th century, which provides a sobering look at this dark period in history. The museum also features temporary exhibitions that keep the content fresh and interesting for repeat visitors.

    However, some visitors find the museum relatively small, which might limit the time spent there for those expecting a more extensive collection. Additionally, a few reviewers mention that some areas of the museum could benefit from modernization or interactive elements to engage younger visitors more effectively.

    Despite its compact size, Køge Museum manages to offer a comprehensive overview of local history and culture. It's a worthwhile stop for those interested in Danish history or looking to understand more about the town of Køge itself.
