The royal couple were central figures in the Amarna period - a period in the 18th dynasty when many things in Egyptian society were turned upside down. The capital was moved and religion, art and power structures were redefined. - Date: Thursday 1 October 2026 - Time: 13:00–15:00 - Venue: FOF Humletorvet - Address: Humletorvet 27, Copenhagen V, Denmark - Admission: Ticketed
