Denmark's Aquarium is an aquarium in Denmark. The original aquarium was located in Charlottenlund, but this facility closed in 2012. A new aquarium called The Blue Planet opened in March 2013 in Kastrup, a suburb of Copenhagen. Much of the stock from the old aquarium was relocated to this new facility. Denmark's Aquarium in Charlottenlund started construction in 1937 and was opened in 1939. In 1974, this aquarium was expanded to feature five large landscape aquaria and a biological museum with theme-based exhibits and aquariums. In 1990, the facility was further expanded by a new front hall, café, improved toilet facilities and a schooler service. In the final years before the closure of the aquarium in Charlottenlund, it had about 1,000,000 litres of water in about 70 aquarium tanks. The main purpose of the aquarium is to disseminate marine information, help science projects, and help improve educational institutions. The Blue Planet resembles a whirlpool when seen from above and was designed by Danish architects 3XN. It has about 7,000,000 litres of water, including a 4,000,000-litre tank for sharks and rays.
