Over the course of the summer, we're bringing highlights from Laksegade's history to life at the construction site. Stop by and dive into more than 400 years of Danish and city history that has unfolded in the quarter.

"The devil is on the loose in Laksegade."

…is a phrase many will recognise, but what's the story behind it? What was happening in the quarter before the banks moved in, who built the grand mansions, and who lived in them? Laksegade has been the setting for major events in the history of the city and of Denmark as a whole. Over more than 400 years, the quarter has seen a colourful nightlife, the navy's people, wealthy merchants, and the country's financial heart.

From mid-July, you can visit Laksegade Kvarteret and dive into the many stories told along the hoarding, in collaboration with the Museum of Copenhagen and Kbhbilleder.dk.
