Viggo Lauritz Bentheim Hørup (22 May 1841 – 15 February 1902) was a Danish politician, journalist and agitator.
He was one of the most influential politicians of the Danish non-Socialist left wing.
Perhaps his greatest direct influence is due to his work as a journalist. After some years of working for the more traditional liberal press he founded the radical liberal newspaper Politiken (Eng. The Policy) in 1884.
And why is he placed here in the king's garden?, - he fought against the monarchy and everything they represent .
Because, among many other things, he argued that the park should be a public place.
