The Tibetan Community in Denmark

Denmark has one of the most established Tibetan Buddhist communities in Scandinavia, shaped by a long relationship with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who has visited Copenhagen many times since the 1990s. Tibetan life in Denmark centres on Copenhagen and Aarhus, where Tibetans, Danes and long-settled exile families come together to keep language, religion and tradition alive.

The community marks Losar, His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s birthday and the 10 March commemoration of the Tibetan National Uprising, supported by organisations such as Tibet Charity Denmark, which runs humanitarian and cultural projects connecting Denmark and the Tibetan exile world. A central figure in Danish Tibetan life is Lakha Lama, a Tibetan-born teacher who settled in Denmark in 1976 and has guided the community for decades.

Featured Monastery

Phendeling, the Center for Tibetan Buddhism in Copenhagen, is one of the principal homes of Tibetan Buddhism in Denmark, with a sister centre, Ösal Ling, in Aarhus. Both grew around Lakha Lama, the Tibetan teacher who settled in Denmark in 1976 and became one of the best-known Tibetan figures in Scandinavian public life. Phendeling offers meditation, teachings and prayer ceremonies in the Tibetan tradition and has helped host several visits by His Holiness the Dalai Lama to Denmark. Together with Tibet Charity Denmark, it forms the spiritual and cultural backbone of the Tibetan community in the country.
