Tombstone
Tombstone of Søren Kierkegaard. Copenhagen.

In Denmark, death records include official death certificates and parish registers (døds- og begravelsesprotokoller). These documents provide vital information such as the deceased's name, birth date, date of death, and burial location. For genealogical research, the Danish National Archives offers access to historical records, including church registers, which can help trace family lineage and uncover ancestry. Additionally, census records can complement death information by providing context on family members. Accessing these records typically involves online databases or visits to local archives, making it easier to build a comprehensive family history.
