Pilestræde
Pilestræde ( lit. English: Willow Alley) is a street in central Copenhagen, Denmark. It is a side street to the pedestrianized shopping street Strøget and commonly associated with the newspaper publishing house Berlingske Media, which has its headquarters in the street. History The street name refers to Pilegården, a farm which was located at the site in the Middle Ages. Pilegårde is first mentioned in 1419 and was divided into several smaller properties in 1579. In the 16th century, Copenhagen's stud farm (''Københavns Avlsgård''), where the city's bulls were stabled, was also located along the street. The stud farm was in 1671 sold to Trinitatis Church for use as a cemetery. The northernmost part of Pilestræde was originally called Springergade with a reference to the bulls at the farm. Local residents found the name inappropriate and the street was therefore included in Pilestræde in 1881. In 1765, Berlingske's publishinghouse established in one of the yards on the ea ...
