A vertical panorama of Frederik's Church in Copenhagen, showing off its impressive rococo architecture. In particular, the 31m dome is a standout feature and is one of the bigger domes in Europe.

Former bathhouse for school children. Children could shower here for free once a week.

 

Voormalig badhuis voor schoolkinderen. Kinderen konden hier eenmaal per week gratis douchen.

Voorin waren kamertjes voor de administratie, de badmeester en de badvrouw. Daarachter waren wacht- en kleedkamers, en helemaal achterin de zaal met circa 40 douches.

Architect: Hendrik Leguyt (1840 - 1907).

 

De eerste schoolkinderbaden werden vormgegeven in een sobere vorm van de Zwitserse Chaletstijl (Blokjesstijl). Vanaf 1920 namen de badhuizen een stedenbouwkundig prominentere plaats in binnen de wijk en werden ze ontworpen in de nieuwe stijl van de Amsterdamse School

Frederiks Kirk (Frederik's Church), also known as Marmorkirken (The Marble Church) in Nyhavn the entertainment district in the centre of Copenhagen in Denmark.

 

The church was designed by the architect Nicolai Eigtved in 1740 and was along with the rest of Frederiksstaden, a district of Copenhagen, intended to commemorate the 300 years jubilee of the first coronation of a member of the House of Oldenburg. Frederick's Church has the largest church dome in Scandinavia with a span of 31m. The dome rests on 12 columns. The inspiration was probably St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.

 

The foundation stone was set by king Frederick V on October 31, 1749, but the construction was slowed by budget cuts and the death of Eigtved in 1754. In 1770, the original plans for the church were abandoned by Johann Friedrich Struensee. The church was left incomplete and, in spite of several initiatives to complete it, stood as a ruin for nearly 150 years.

 

In 1874, Andreas Frederik Krieger, Denmark's Finance Minister at the time, sold the ruins of the uncompleted church and the church square to Carl Frederik Tietgen for 100,000 Rigsdaler — none of which was to be paid in cash — on the condition that Tietgen would build a church in a style similar to the original plans and donate it to the state when complete, while in turn he acquired the rights to subdivide neighbouring plots for development.

 

The deal was at the time highly controversial. On 25 January 1877, a case was brought by the Folketing at the Rigsretten (Court of Impeachment ) Krieger being charged with corruption over this deal. He was, however, eventually acquitted.

 

Tietgen got Ferdinand Meldahl to design the church in its final form and financed its construction. Due to financial restrictions, the original plans for the church to be built almost entirely from marble were discarded, and instead Meldahl opted for construction to be done with limestone. The church was finally opened to the public on August 19, 1894.

 

Inscribed in gold lettering on the entablature of the front portico are the words: HERRENS ORD BLIVER EVINDELIG ("the word of the Lord endureth for ever"). A series of statues of prominent theologians and ecclesiastical figures, including one of the eminent Danish philosopher Kierkegaard (who, incidentally, had become very critical of the established church by the end of his life), encircles the grounds of the building.

Christiansborg slotsplads, Copenhagen

Frederiks Bastion is named after Frederik IV (1671 - 1730), son of King Christian V.

The bastion was built in 1744-45 as gunpowder magazine after the architect C.E.D. von Øtkens drawings.

The ramparts around is part of Christiania, but not Frederiks Bastion.

Here again is the 'Seated Lad' (1916) by Frederik Engel Jeltsema (1879-1971) whom I've mentioned earlier in these pages

www.flickr.com/photos/87453322@N00/8645044889/in/photolis.... The sculpture, the spring crocuses and the handsome building struck my fancy on this bright morning. Today the building houses the offices of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Groningen-Leeuwarden. It was designed by father and son, Kornelis (1844-1911) and Gerhardus (1875-1935) Hoekzema, both of Groningen, and built 1901-1902. Before it was turned into an office building, it was a family residence for Dirk Rudolph de Marees van Swinderen (1862-1943), local lawyer, banker and Chief Judge (President) of the District Court.
