Skydebanemuren, Protected brick wall in Vesterbro, Copenhagen, Denmark.
The Shooting Range Wall stretches along Skydebanehaven park with its neo-Gothic design, featuring red brick construction, pinnacles, and decorative elements.
Built in 1887 as a protective barrier for the Royal Copenhagen Shooting Society, the wall prevented stray bullets from reaching the newly established Istedgade street.
The wall's architecture reflects late 19th-century Danish military structures, incorporating defensive elements with ornamental features typical of the period.
Three gates provide access to Skydebanehaven through the wall, connecting the park to Istedgade, Absalonsgade, and Matthæusgade neighborhoods.
The structure combines the appearance of a medieval fortress with functional bullet-stopping capabilities, marking the boundary between residential areas and former shooting grounds.
