Details

This is the fifth largest meteorite in the world and was found in northern Greenland. It's at the Danish Geologic Museum in Copenhagen (Mark Buesing stopped in on his way to Greenland). In fact, this is only about half of it, as the other half was sliced off and used for various studies. It's around 4.5 billion years old. Copenhagen, Denmark.
