Guldbergsgade


Guldbergsgade is a street in the Nørrebro district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It follows a clockwise curve from Sankt Hans Torv in the south to Tagensvej in the north. The first part of the street passes the Jewish Northern Cemetery to the west and De Gamles By to the east. The public space Guldbergs Plads with a landscaped playground, is located close to its north end.

Guldbergsgade was originally called Barkmøllevej. The name referred to Garvernes Barkmølle ("The Tanners' Bark Mill") at Sankt Hans Torv, one of three windmills in the area. Another section of the road was called Lille Blegdamsvej ("Little Blegdamsvej"). The road received its current name in 1959. The name commemorates Frederik Høegh-Guldberg, a son of former Danish prime minister Ove Høegh-Guldberg, who built a house on the street in the beginning of the 19th century while he worked as a teacher at nearby Blaagaard Seminarium. Peter Fabersgade was also called Guldbergsgade until 1896.

Empire Bio (No. 29F) is a cinema located in a former industrial building. It was adapted for its current use by the architectural firm CEBRA. KEA – Copenhagen School of Design and Technology's Guldbergsgade Campus, also referred to as the Empire Campus, is located to the rear of the cinema. It occupies a dense site between Guldbergsgade, Mimersgade, Nørrebrogade and Peter Fabers Gade and was established in 2011-2013. It us partly based in a complex of old, industrial buildings which were adapted for their current use by Bertelsen & Scheving Arkitekter.
