Søtorvet, Historic square in Indre By, Denmark.
Søtorvet features four symmetrical buildings with towers and spires, positioned across Frederiksborggade at the intersection with Øster and Nørre Søgade.
The Copenhagen Building Company, founded by Carl Frederik Tietgen, constructed this residential development between 1873 and 1875 following the dismantling of city fortifications.
The bronze statues of Tiber and Nile, replicas of first-century Roman sculptures, were contributed by Carl Jacobsen's Albertina Trust to adorn the square.
The square marks the transition point where Frederiksborggade meets Queen Louise Bridge, serving as a connection between Inner City and Nørrebro districts.
Café de la Reine, established around 1900 at Søtorvet 2, became known for its outdoor service and attracted notable Danish poets during the 1930s.
