Altre informazioni:
Aerial view of the historic district Frederiksstaden in Copenhagen. In the picture many of the old Rococo buildings and straight right-angled streets are hidden by taller, modern buildings, though. Frederiksstaden is a historic district in Copenhagen constructed in the reign of King Frederik V in the late 18th century. It is one of the important Rococo complexes in Europe with Amalienborg Palace and Frederik's Church (the Marble Church) in the central axis. Frederik's Church can be seen left in the image (verdigrised doom) - the Amalienborg Palace is partly concealed behind the Royal Playhouse. But a walk in the district will reveal a wealth of straight broad and right-angled streets lined by bourgeois houses, palaces and mansions, typical for the period. Some of the most notable buildings: Amalienborg Palace, Frederik's Church, the Odd Fellow Mansion, Molkte's Mansion, historic Frederik's Hospital (now the Danish Museum of Art & Design), all five buildings found in or from Bredgade - and the Royal Playhouse. In the picture also red roofed buildings at Christianshavn, Nyhavn and the Royal Playhouse in the foreground. In the distance the North Harbour of Copenhagen, the Sound (Øresund) and the Zealand north-eastern coast.
