The Carlsberg City District
A strong cultural heritage comes to life in Copenhagen’s newest neighbourhood, The Carlsberg City District. A unique neighbourhood, where historical buildings are flanked by modern residencies.
The Carlsberg City District is deeply rooted in the history of the Copenhagen-founded brewery Carlsberg. The district’s ground used to be a former “island”, in the sense that it used to be a closed industrial ground. This brewing era has left behind a distinct fundament and exceptional heritage for the district to be built upon, handing the neighbourhood various presents in the form of historical buildings and industrial and scientific history.
