Stormbroen
This beautiful relief can be found at Stormbroen (Storm Bridge), which is attaching Slotsholmen (where the Danish Parliament is) with the rest of Copenhagen. It is build in 1681. 'Storm' actually means storm in Danish as well, but the name refers to a big battle between the Danish and Swedish forces at 11 February 1651, where about 1.000 soldiers died.
