A winterview from the top of Vor Frue Kirke (Copenhagen's Cathedral - The Church of Our Lady). In the top left you can see Frederiks Kirke/Marmorkirken (Frederick's Church/The Marble Church). You can find another picture of the Marble Church, posted earlier on the blog here.

Decoration

A rather decorative element at a fence not far from the royal castle. You don't find that sort of things at new buildings or constructions.

Grundtvig

N.F.S. Grundtvig (1783-1872) is one of the more succesfull poets and philosophers in Danish history. His philosophy has greatly influenced the Danish culture.

This is a statue of him outside Marmorkirken (Marble Church).

What a gate!

I think this is a very beatiful gateway. Doesn't matter that there is a big ugly truck in outside.

Men at work or robbery?

I posted a photo of the statues at Marmorkirken (Marble Church) a few days ago. And then yesterday this suddenly happened! Actually, I don't think it is robbery, but rather preparations for refurbishment.

The Apostles


The statues on the roof of Marmorkirken (Marble Church). I am not sure - as I haven't been able to find any information about them - but they could very well be the apostles.

One of my favourite books is Ken Follet's Pillars of the Earth. These pillars are from Marmorkirken (Marble Church) in Frederikstaden in the Inner City
