Blågårds Plads, Public square in Nørrebro district, Denmark
The granite sculptures across Blågårds Plads represent various trades, including tailors, coopers, barbers, and bakers, alongside children playing in the corners.
The square stands on the former site of Blågård estate, established in the mid-17th century by Christoffer Gabel before becoming an iron foundry in 1827.
The central area of Blågårds Plads transforms throughout the year, functioning as a football pitch during summer and becoming an ice-skating rink in winter.
The square contains a community center, library, and multiple cafes, providing essential services to residents of the Nørrebro neighborhood.
Twenty-two detailed granite figures designed by sculptor Kai Nielsen and architect Ivar Bentsen decorate this registered cultural monument in Copenhagen.
