Lyngby Townhall, Civic building in Kongens Lyngby, Denmark
Lyngby Townhall is a civic building in Kongens Lyngby featuring a curved marble facade facing Lyngby Torv. The architects Hans Erling Langkilde and Ib Martin Jensen designed it with distinctive curved lines and refined materials.
It was built between 1939 and 1941 as a landmark of Danish architectural design from that period. The structure has remained the administrative seat of the municipality since its completion.
The building houses the local government of Lyngby-Taarbæk and serves as a symbol of civic pride for the community. The square surrounding it functions as a gathering place where residents meet and local events take place.
You can view the building from outside and explore the surrounding square, though access to certain areas may be limited. It is advisable to check current access conditions before visiting, as renovation work may affect passage.
The marble facade was completely removed and reinstalled with new mounting systems while preserving its historical elements during recent work. This process demonstrates how modern restoration techniques protect traditional craftsmanship.
