Nørrebrogade

Nørrebrogade is the principal shopping street and a major thoroughfare of the Nørrebro district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from The Lakes in the southeast to Nørrebro station in the northwest, linking Frederiksborggade and Queen Louise's Bridge with Frederikssundsvej. The street passes Assistens Cemetery, Nørrebro Runddel and the Superkilen linear park. Buildings include the multipurpose venue Nørrebrohallen and two churches.

Nørrebrogade originates in the road that led in and out of Copenhagen's Northern City Gate. Few buildings were located along the road due to the so-called Demarcation Line enforced restrictions on the construction of buildings outside Copenhagen's fortifications. The road was built over after the demarcation line was moved to the lakes in 1952.

Alderstrøst (No. 9) was built by Håndv ærkerforeningen in 1860 - 1862 to provide affordable housing for old craftsmen. The Neoclassical building was designed by Theodor Sørensen. It was later followed by another housing complex by the same name on Nørre Allé.

The Sacrament Church (No. 27), located as a point de vue opposite Fælledvej, is a Roman Catholic church. It was consecrated in 1917.

Rud. Rasmussen's furniture workshop (No. 45) was established at the site in the 1870s and is still active in the manufactureing of many Danish furniture classics. The complex consists of a residential building on Nørrebrogade from 1895, a factory building facing Stengade from 1876 and a factory building with Mansard roof from 1911 designed by Alfred Thomsen in the courtyard. The complex was declared a Danish Industrial Heritage Sites in 2007 and was listed in 2008.
