Johan Daniel Herholdt
Johan Daniel Herholdt (13 August 1818 – 11 April 1902) was a Danish architect, professor and royal building inspector. He worked in the Historicist style and had a significant influence on Danish architecture during the second half of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. His most famous work is the Copenhagen University Library in Fiolstræde in Copenhagen which heralded a new trend. The strong use of red brick in large-scale cultural and civic buildings was to characterize Danish architecture for several decades. He was a leading proponent of the "national" school in Danish architecture of the period as opposed to Ferdinand Meldahl's and Vilhelm Dahlerup's "European" school. Biography Johan Daniel Herholdt was born in 1818 in Copenhagen. He first trained and worked as a carpenter until 1840. In quiet months when work was scarce, he attended evening classes at the Royal Academy and took drawing lessons in the daytime, studying first under Gustav Hetsch and later Mic ...

Cast Iron
Cast iron is a class of iron–carbon alloys with a carbon content more than 2%. Its usefulness derives from its relatively low melting temperature. The alloy constituents affect its color when fractured: white cast iron has carbide impurities which allow cracks to pass straight through, grey cast iron has graphite flakes which deflect a passing crack and initiate countless new cracks as the material breaks, and ductile cast iron has spherical graphite "nodules" which stop the crack from further progressing. Carbon (C), ranging from 1.8 to 4 wt%, and silicon (Si), 1–3 wt%, are the main alloying elements of cast iron. Iron alloys with lower carbon content are known as steel. Cast iron tends to be brittle, except for malleable cast irons. With its relatively low melting point, good fluidity, castability, excellent machinability, resistance to deformation and wear resistance, cast irons have become an engineering material with a wide range of applications and are ...

Gyldenholm Manor
Gyldenholm Manor is a manor house located 10 km south-east of Slagelse, between Gimlinge and Sørbymagle, Slagelse Municipality, some 70 kilometres southwest of Copenhagen, Denmark. The history of the estate dates back to 1774 but the current main building was constructed in 1864 to a Historicist design by Johan Daniel Herholdt. History In 1774, Antvorskov Ryttergods was sold at auction. Anders Dinesen acquired two parcels, Gimlinge and Lystager, and constructed a new manor house which was named Gyldenholm. In 1800, Dinesen's son sold the estate to Christopher Schøller Bülow. In 1806, he also acquired Nordfeld and Ålebæk on Møn. Peter Johansen de Neergaard , one of the largest landowners of his time in Denmark, purchased the estate in 1810 but sold it again just two years later. A later owner was Georg Koës Brøndsted, a son of the prominent archeologist Peter Oluf Brøndsted. In 1862, Gyldenholm returned to the Neergaard family when it was acquired by Charles Ado ...

Havnegade
Havnegade is a waterfront promenade in central Copenhagen, Denmark, which runs between Knippelsbro and the mouth of the Nyhavn canal. Most of the street is lined with buildings from the 1860s and 1870s that were constructed as part of the redevelopment of the Gammelholm naval dockyards. It is the only place along Copenhagen's main harbourfront where residential buildings of that age face the water, although older warehouses and other industrial buildings elsewhere have been converted into residential use. The Modernist Bank of Denmark building is located at the western end of the street. History The street was created when the Royal Danish Navy decommissioned its last operations in the area, which used to be a naval shipyard, and it came under urban redevelopment. From about 1960 and until 1999, the street was a hub for tax-free ferries to Malmö on the other side of the Øresund. Plans to transform Havnegade into a promenade were put on hold in October 2008 due to budget cuts. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Levin House (Copenhagen)
The Levin House (Danish: Levins Gård or Levins Hus) is a Historicist property located on Gammelholm's Havnegade waterfront in central Copenhagen, Denmark. Designed by Johan Daniel Herholdt and completed in 1866, it is one of the first buildings that was completed after the former Naval dockyard came under redevelopment in the 1860s. The building is today owned by the Karberghus company and occupied by a law firm. It was listed in 1978. History In 1859 the Navy decommissioned their last operations at Gammelholm, and the area was designated for residential redevelopment. The City's initial plan was to reserve it for large villas in an attempt to keep wealthy tax-payers within the municipal borders since they were increasingly settling in Frederiksberg or in the northern suburbs. The grocer and bankier Martin Levin bought a lot on the waterfront and charged the architect Johan Daniel Herholdt with designing a house which was built in 1865–66. Due to the difficult economic tim ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Holmens Kanal
Holmens Kanal is a short street in central Copenhagen. Part of the main thoroughfare of the city centre, it extends from Kongens Nytorv for one block to a junction with a statue of Niels Juel where it turns right towards Holmens Bro while the through traffic continues straight along Niels Juels Gade. The street was originally a canal, hence the name, but was filled in the 1860s. Today it is dominated by bank and government buildings. History The canal Holmens Kanal was created when Christian IV extended Copenhagen's East Rampart straight through Bremerholm as part of his upgrade of the city's fortifications. The moat in front of the rampart was dug in 1606 and became known as the Canal of Holmen (Holmens Kanal) when it was expanded to serve as a new harbour for the Royal Fleet after its ships had become too large to enter the Arsenal Harbour further south. A street named Størrestrædet ran along the street from circa 1650. It was part of a small new neighborhood in which mo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ewaldsgade
Ewaldsgade is a street in the Nørrebro district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from Åboulevard in the south to Smedegade in the north. The buildings on the east side of the street overlook Peblinge Lake. The street is named for the poet Johannes Ewald. History Ewaldsgade was created by Frederik Christopher Bülow, the inspector at Københavns Ladegård, who acquired large areas of land in Frederiksberg and Nørrebro, selling it off in lots for urban development. Ladegårdsåen had still not been covered and Bülow therefore constructed a private bridge across the canal to connect the new street to Ladegårdsvej. The street was initially referred to as Brogade (Bridge Street). The land in Nørrebro was generally built over with high-density apartment buildings for the working class. Due to the proximity to Peblinge Lake, Ewaldsgade was, however, reserved for more exclusive homes for members of the bourgeoisie. Bülow also constructed a home for himself in the street. Notabl ...
