Lake Pavilion, Copenhagen

Lake Pavilion is a restaurant and registered monument located on the north side of Gyldenløvesgade between Peblinge Lake and Sankt Jørgens Lake. The building spans multiple levels with dining areas on the lower floor, a stage for live performances, and upper spaces offering lake views.

The building was designed in 1895 by architect Vilhelm Dahlerup in the Historicist style and originally served as the clubhouse for the Copenhagen Ice Skating Club. The venue evolved over time from a seasonal winter facility into a year-round restaurant and entertainment space.

The venue draws visitors who appreciate dining with views of the lakes and the pulse of the city nearby. It reflects how Copenhageners have long valued these waters as social gathering places beyond just seasonal activities.

The building accommodates around 700 guests spread across multiple floors and is easy to locate from the lakeside. Its position on the water makes it accessible for those walking through the city and looking for dining or entertainment.

The building displays late 19th century architecture and offers views of two large lakes simultaneously from its upper floors. This vantage point makes it a rare spot in the city where two major bodies of water are visible from a single location.
