Robbie Williams visited a notorious drugs den while touring in Denmark. The singer went to the commune of 'Freetown Christiania' in Copenhagen, where cannabis is openly smoked on the streets and most drugs are up for grabs.

Robbie walked to the 85-acre site, which is in an abandoned military barracks, with six minders and pal Jonathon Wilkes.

While he was there hee bought a hoodie bearing the slogan “Bevar Christiania,” which means “Save Christiania.”

But Robbie’s visit initially caused a panic among locals. When they spotted his security team talking into radios and assumed it was a police bust.

A Danish journalist who witnessed the scene told 'The Sun':

“There has been a lot of tension between the authorities and the residents recently and Robbie’s visit caused a scene.
But people soon recognised who he was and he was made welcome. He walked around and chatted to locals.”
